BBC Six O'Clock News - December 1988

[@applemask]

I just liked it when every news programme had its own titles.

To be precise, the first sightings of that logo were in 1988, but it was only phased in gradually - even in 1990, some programmes ended with the old logo. It appears halfway through series 2 of A Bit of Fry and Laurie, shown in March/April 1990.

0:01 The 1990 Logo in 1988 is so rare

Hard to believe how much younger Martin Stanford looked twenty years ago. Nowadays, he looks just that bit like Andrew Harvey.

I don't disagree. They watered it down a bit when the virtual news studio was introduced in 1993.

If this is December 29, then why are the national and regional news bulletins both on at the usual times and for the standard half hour?

Everything about the BBC was so well presented back then with announcers that you can understabd etc, not all the accents we have today. The BBC really has been dumbed down.

Great Video!!! And with the South Today 'Flying Fridge' Credits, Even Better. Just the Way news should be not watered down with this virtual studio stuff. Do you have the full opening for South Today which would have followed, That would just be superb!!! Well done

How come this was shown during the christmas holidays?

[@theeddielang]

Martin Stanford LOL

Had to be better that how it’s presented from New Broadcating House, as presentation was excessive to the least with too much spin for the intro. The titles and music on this video worked well here, even better between 1993-1999, yet became more tense with its music.

+Jack Sugden i remember the virtual look but not these titles
