Decisions, decisions as to what to ask Santa for - I've got lots of requests but most are "mission impossibles" which everyone asks for, such as 3-2-1 or the original Family Fortunes, which will never see daylight so I won't ask for them Laughing Another long-shot but has anyone got BBC1's Nationwide from 1978 please? Thank you. Oh, I've a few oldies but probably nothing spectacular... happy to oblige if I have it. You hum it and I'll play it (to paraphrase the PG Tips advert)

I'm certain that Nationwide's music is a library track called The Good Word

Thank you Bail! Appreciate it.
Is there anything I can upload for anyone?

I have too much requests (some of them are even "misssion impossibles", such as Newsline 1996), so I'll try to squeeze a few of them here. Could someone upload Wales Today 2008 and Newsline 1999 packages, please? I'd greatly appreciate it.
EDIT: Whoops, I forgot about English Regions 1999.
Thanks,
Owen

What about the other mission impossibles? Such as Wales Today 1984, Wales Today 1986, Wales Today 1988, Wales Today 1993 and Wales Today 1995? Hardly worth getting them. But maybe next month you'll find them on TVARK's new website so you can watch them after three long years!

David Lowe composed at least one of them. BBC Wales approached BBC Birmingham for a track when DL was part of the WM team...

Owen, I think 3mast was on about 1995 - not 2005.

David composed 1999, 2005, 2008 and the most recent one.

Never seen these shared before, so here for your festive pleasure, are six clean tracks from Calendar's 2003 final custom music package, used for less than a year before the first ITV generic look came in...

I always really liked this version of the theme - shame about the hideous orange and blue gradient titles and set that accompanied it.

Mind, nowadays that does look quite 'Instagram'. Wink

Merry Christmas everyone.
