ITN Nostalgia

Nice find, Bilky. Although, based on the actual events contained in the clip, it would seem (according to the comments on YouTube) that the broadcast was actually earlier than 19th June.

The music, the story and the yellow ITN astons, not to mention Dickie Davies at the end, bring back so many memories.

Two of the suggested dates in the comments can't possibly be correct - one is before the footage's dates, and neither are a Saturday, which is when this edition was shown.

From what I can discern, the date in the title is correct. In any case, it is definitely later than the previously found clip.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if that bulletin was the straw that broke the camel's back in terms of Non-Stop. How anyone could think it was appropriate is beyond me!

That jolly music with those pictures, you'd think it was a parody if you didn't know otherwise!

I suppose it depends on what you’re used to.

I grew up with that music as the ITN News theme, so to me it doesn’t sound jolly at all, it’s authoritative. Especially when one mentally links it with the end of the same piece that’s used for the closing titles. To me, it isn’t inappropriate at all.
