Thames News, adverts & closedown announcer Philip Elsmore in-vision 17th June 1981 4 of 4 

I always thought Philip was a sweetie and loved it when he was on.

Thames was 1 of the best regions of ITV

"Just the Two of Us" by Grover Washington, Jr and Bill Withers from "Winelight" plays around the closedown. Just letting you guys know what the song is :)

That was the French-Italian Western "Red Sun" starring Charles Bronson and Toshirô Mifune (!) ending at the start there.

Love the Lowenbrau ad.

That's a very juddery second hand on the Thames clock!

strikes and industrial action...hmm...Tories in power...Hmmm. History repeating....Hmm. :-0
