Memories! wow! I remembered this from when my mum watched the news on a very old colour tv which was our main tv in the living rooms of all 3 houses where I grew up, until 2003, when we had to replace it with a tv which was a few inches bigger and a lot more boxy, because the picture completely died, it was so old. I was two years old when this theme was in use. I wish all the tv theme music was still classical as much as it possibly can be classical. So much nicer back then than the square wave keyboards of today.

I was born in December 1986 but remember this intro very well. I was captivated by the flying over the numbers but couldn't understand at that age why they started from 9 and ended at 1. I suppose I would've been away from the television at lunchtime for a lot of that time anyway. I am certain that Newsround had a similar introduction visually, with yellow lettering, but I could be mistaken.

They started with 9 and worked their way around the clock until they reached the 1 because when the proper daytime schedule started on BBC One in October 1986, they had hourly news summaries from 9am to Midday all leading up to the 1pm News - the news summaries at that time had a short sting version of the One O'Clock News theme. Just think of the amount of thought that went into those opening titles.

@hotseventyfive Thanks! It's similar and the look of the yellow blocks is the same, but my recollection is that they were arranged in a similar way to the one o'clock news introduction, like following a track, and a 3D version of those NEWSROUND yellow blocks was affixed to the front of a more substantial desk that was visible throughout the programme and there were two presenters. Probably John Craven and the woman who did the rugby piece here. I could be wrong but have a good visual memory for these things. Perhaps it superseded this one. It might have been lost to the archives.
