Over four decades later I still can't fathom why the BBC suddenly decided to pull this popular and successful programme. What have we got now? The fucking One Show.
@jonathan_ansell
@jonathan_ansell 11 дней назад
according to a bbc doc a few years ago, it was pulled after pressure from the thatcher gov't following the famous belgrano interview where a member of the public repeated asked thatcher why she sank it. - i guess it must've been live. footage is kicking around somewhere. awks.

We only had three channels back then but television was about quality and not quantity . Proper news programme s that only lasted fifteen minutes but gave viewers the information they needed without all the froth . Soaps were shown two or three times a week and not every day and had more believable storylines. It was still possible too make comedy shows without people getting offended or traumatised. Sport was free too view for everyone instead of costing the earth i really miss those days ,,

Stirs so many memories... great piece of music. Those slightly clashing trumpets/brass. Love it. I always think some session musician probably just went in for half a day and recorded this, and it is now a treasured and iconic tune for so many.

For once it _isn't_ a Ronnie Hazlehurst (if in doubt, for many British TV themes over several decades, you're on fairly good grounds if you guess him!), but Johnny Scott; it's called The Good Word.

The bit no one recognises, is the hook they would use if the network was running early. Back in the day when TV was broadcast live to the nation, if they needed extra time to "opt in" to all the regional stations, they could extend the opening credits. This happened quite a few times, over the years.

Hearing this brings back so many memories. Does anyone remember that in 1981 one of the Nationwide reporters, Tony Wilkinson went undercover and lived as a homeless person and it was show within Nationwide as a series called Down and Out. I thought it was very very good. Sadly I have seen no footage of it since. It was repeated in 1982 and never heard of again. I have the book that accompanied the series.

I do indeed remember that. He assumed the name Tony Crabbe as I recall. A piece of journalism that is still as relevant as ever I feel. I also remember James Hogg living rough off the land on a remote Scottish island for some time and being cheered and applauded by the locals. Obviously memorable TV for some of us. Also in 1983 after the format of NW was changed Margaret Thatcher getting a verbal handbagging from a woman over the Falklands/Belgrano incident during a question and answer interview with the Great British public.

Same vintage. Of course, "Jessica" was a real song and this was basically library music- but the standard of much library music in the late 60s and 70s was usually quite high, because they didn't want to lose out to pop/ rock tracks all the time when the Beeb, ITV and the other TV companies were looking for theme music.
