I mentioned it in passing earlier in the thread, but yes - the regional announcers sometimes would. Here's Alistair Yates in the Midlands, for example

John Mundy in the North West

There's a Paul Harris BBC South one out there, but it was websnatched from TV Ark so can't be posted here.

These sequences were largely intended to mimic ITV so perhaps not surprising that the practice continued.
