Wait. Copyright issues? What was that?


If I remember rightly, the 2002 theme was withdrawn after a composer claimed that Sky had plagiarised the previous theme, which said composer had written, without their permission. Hence, the mad pianist theme was swiftly written and introduced.


What was the music Sky was claimed to have copied from?



I always thought the 2001 music sounded very similar to the 'RIFF' from the track 'The Race' by 'Yello' which was used for Formula 1 in the early days? Anyone else think this or is it just me being mad!!!!! Like the mad Sky News Pianist lol!!!

Sky News | General Discussion

I must say I was really looking forward to something special but they've just reverted to that boring old glass box and havn't even updated the TOTH music! Sky News has lost it's pzazz from years ago...my favorite package I must admit and era being around 2004 when Chris Roberts & Juliette Foster were presenting and the really loud and garish in ya face graphics along with the really cool punchy newsy music! Maybe they are saving themselves for the 30th anniversary on Feb 5th 2019?....That is of course...if Trump.....who Mr Murdoch loves so much....hasn't pressed his big red button which of course is much bigger than Kim Jong Un's!!!
