It's interesting how the 1983 intro had a new version of the theme, then BBC decided to reuse the 1980 version of the theme in the 1986 intro (and they used it until 1993). Also I LOVE the electric guitar, especially on the 1980 version.
Longer History, More Serious but More Vibrant than David Lowe's theme, I prefer NewsNight as my personal favourite - You know it will be something serious when you hear it (not an ordinary news bulletin). Look forward to 28 January 2020 - 40th Anniversary for NewsNight. Can't help but will say "Good Evening" every time after the tune ends. The most standard way to pronounce these two words.

Rather RIP old Hir TV. After 1st of March, Hir Tv is practically Echo TV but with different, more estabilished name (as they have Echo TV journalists, and its intros and studios). Also, ATV Hiradó is worth compilation too. There were intros of Echo TV and ATV Hiradó from 2008/2009 on RU-vid but disappeared because of account KPMTV deleted
