Mike Prince was great (to me as a kid).

Unusual for Zoom 2 to be used for continuity (as Mary Hartman was an import so not an ATV production).

[@stuartharris2165]

Very unusual, ATV were one of the rare ITV stations that didn't use there ident for continuity, either before a film, an import or the news.

R.I.P Dickie Davies

[@melgrant7404]

Big collar kipper tie

[@Redsleather]

And huge flares to match I’d imagine

[@KevinM913]

I lived in the ATV region but don't remember them using their ident unless at the start of one of their own productions. Must have been experimenting with new ideas here.

[@christopherhulse8385]

TSW did the same thing, often putting their ident before programmes not made by them!

[@Candolad]

I think they used their own ident for American imported shows like this one when it wasn't networked across ITV in the same timeslot.

[@rtc9063]

Thames did it before every show - I even seen them do it before going into Coronation Street

[@scritti69]

Absolutely brilliant, thank you!

[@ADCTVCollection]

My pleasure, thanks for you comment :-)

[@RazSux]

Love the Crosse and Blackwell ad!

[@essvee86]

That Kellog's Corn Flakes commercial could fit very well in the 80s.

[@ADCTVCollection]

This was alway my favourite Corn Flakes advert.

A like as the 2.newsreaders finish. looks like their going to hold hands jump up and start singing .bring me sunshine..

[@bobrew461]

Reggie Boozenquet :-0

[@ColmORourke1981]

Big Ron Tarr in the Kleenex Super 3 advert. Here's hoping Applemask appreciates the generic brick advert.

[@jareddicarlo7816]

The oxtail soup commercial was done by Richard Williams

[@cazt766]

Love your channel thankyou for the many memories👍💕

[@ADCTVCollection]

Thanks for your kind comments, glad you are enjoy them.

My mum always used to say the same thing about the Mentho-Lyptus ads - "They don't work THAT fast!!"

[@christopherhulse8385]

No local news after news at 10?

[@grantgrove6800]

My dad always had a pack of Mentholyptus in his pocket!😆

[@dvidclapperton]

I enjoyed Milke Prince's chst with somebody who at first glance looked a bit like the BBC weatherman Ian McCaskill esrly morning one New Year's day.

[@rtc9063]

That camera angle was pitched a bit too high to show what an utter dump Studio 5 at LWT was behind the World of Sport backdrop
