I've never seen this clip before, it's half of a full edition of Calendar from 1994, all three presenters hosting here are still presenting now. Must have been February Half Term when Richard and Christa were on holiday
What is quite odd is that Calendar started at 5:55 in that era as we know, but at this point the bit up to 6:00 was almost a separate programme, I wonder how long that lasted.
Christine using her posh newsreader voice. She must have only just arrived at YTV at that point.
Can you name who the people are doing Calendar east and south in that clip?
Shame it doesn't have the weather at the end, as if Jon Mitchell was doing it it'd be even better. I don't know if Jon Mitchell was around in 1994.
East presenter is Nick Powell.
Think it was still Bob Rust as the main weather presenter in those days (Jon was the main stand in until Bob left at some point in the mid-90s). Back then it was mostly the continuity announcers that read the weather during the afternoon and weekends.
A great find - shows how powerful ITV regional news was at its peak. Still a worthy product today, don't get me wrong, but in this 90s Calendar the sheer amount of news content before the inevitable fluff just sets it worlds apart.
