BBC 9 O'Clock News Opener 1986
BackBBC 9 O"Clock News Opener October 1986. I recorded this opener while working in London. It featured the so called "Fish Fingers" flying into and out of the UK. BBC colleagues explained to me though that the opener was meant to show all the news coming into London and then pumped out in a news bulletin. The Newsreaders are Julia Sommerville and Andrew Harvey.

One of many opening titles for the BBC designed by CAL Video in the mid 80s.

That theme ROCKS!
Maybe the best theme the Nine o' clock news have ever had.

That Julia Sommerville is a terrible speaker, why did no one notice at the time?

This theme tune reminds me of the Newsnight theme.
