They appeared to take their inspiration for that title sequence from TSW’s ‘Today’ (1986-89) with the rhombuses. That said, the Westcountry muzak was horrible. The hour long format was laboured, with not enough happening in the region to make an engaging programme.
I liked this music better than what they used in 2002-2004 and what they currently have, why did they ditch it in the first place? I also miss these newsreaders, they were much more professional ( no women wearing short dresses! ). Now it's just a complete joke. I never liked the 2002 rebrand before ITN took it over in 2004 and phased Westcountry Live out.
My region is also HTV Wales as I live in Milford Haven. I can pick up Westcountry Television across the Bristol Channel. Unfortunately I only have the Early Evening News from 4/8/94. The recording cut off before the start of Westcountry Live.
