Newsflash - Stories that Stopped the World

Due to the kindness of a member who was good enough to send me a link to this programme, I was able to watch it a couple of days ago.

This is the stuff we news junkies love. A fascinating programme and a veritable series of faces and voices, past and present. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Anthony Carthew, ITN, was the name that stuck out the most for me, being the voice of the Iranian Embassy siege.

An example of a BBC2 Newsflash from 1989 here:

That's a Shatliffed and shortened version of this video from YouTube.
