I believe if we're talking about the same individual former BBC Newsreader Richard Baker is James's father, and James now apparently works for Sky.

Not sure where to put this but I've unintentionally caused frustration at the BBC because my stupid joke logo for BBC Parliament appears in the Google search page as the official logo… now I feel bad. But it's kind of funny.

Spotted on the TV-am Twitter feed, this flyer/advert/feature (year unknown but probably late 1983 or early 1984) is probably twenty years ahead of its time, mentioning that the service is part of ITV1
