Truly the end of an era...

Could be BMi Baby that takes over-- it seems to sponsor many of the ITV regions' weather these days?

Yorkshire Weather is currently sponsored by some theme park. Dreadful opening sequence if you ask me.

Probably the same theme park that sponsors TyneTees Weather, Flamingo Land. It is a poor sequence, very amateurish.

A few weeks back TyneTees Weather was sponsored by Budget Car Insurance and prior to that BMi Baby (this sponsorship stopped due to BMi Baby pulling out of Tees...sorry, Durham Tees Valley Airport).

That shouldn't matter should it? Border Weather takes BMi Baby (well the last time I checked they did) and they always put 'Fly From Manchester' despite the fact there's no big airport within the Border region.

Here's a 1993 sting I luckily happened to find on YouTube a few hours ago:

ITV National Weather sting - Frosty variation (also check out Sian's bad haircut!)

Many, many thanks for finding that, I don't recall ever seeing this one. As for Sian's hair... woah. Shocked

Isn't that using a theme which later appeared in ITV idents, possibly the hearts?

Yeah, using the five note notation from the ITV 1989 generics.

Very sad news. Trish Williamson former TV-am, BBC & ITV weather presenter has been killed in a car crash.

The Weather thread is locked so posted here.
