1:22 Oh wow, I've just realised that the 4 design is actually from a commissioned overhaul of the channel's logo which was ditched. Looks like it was too late to stop it going out in the news titles. I see they amended it with the proper 4 logo soon after.

I think it was because C4 News was an utter disaster (and that's putting it lightly) in the beginning, so it was completely overhauled, and that included the music.

How long did the first one last for? And were they intending to change the music even at the start of the channel, since they must have had it being composed in order for it to be ready for the end of 1982 on 4th November?
@Andrew-tm1cq6 жыл бұрын
It didn't last very long. Maybe just a few weeks. It has been forgotten that at first Channel 4 News was a disaster. There is another video with some continuity before the first edition Channel 4 News which described it as a "completely new style of news programme". That new style was practically unwatchable and quite soon there were rumours of it getting zero ratings it the viewing figures. This prompted an early major revamp which included putting the presenters behind desks an having the headlines and main stories at the start of the programme as well as as changing the theme music to the one we are familiar with today.
