I've just this minute found an old tape from Christmas which I taped a weekend edition of North West Tonight on. I have captured some old graphics - remember these?

BTW, you should have seen Julia Sharp, her hair style has changed so much!!

Rob, the links don't work!

Ooh, that reminds me of a song: (Singing) 'When the drugs don't work'

Then click on the 2 image files entitled NWT00F and NWT00F2

Hope this works!!

As you had a video tape from Christmas with news on it do you actually record news programmes. I used to tape the BBC One o'clock News in 2000 (I'm at school at lunchtime), but then I thought it a bid sad, so I stopped. I now don't bother - I'll just watch the Six O'clock News and be done with it. BTW I think watching news all day long is boring, and so I think all we really need is one one-hour programme.

This is particularly interesting:

The Times - The good news is more news???!!

Look North used these until about April.

The bottom one looks very familar, but the style of the top one wasn't used on Look North,
Usually either a picture of the reporter or a Nokia mobile phone was shown on the slide.

(And by the way, when Look North updated their graphics to the current style, the appropriate Nokia mobile, changed from the earlier style to the newer style of handset!)

Unfortunately, Newsroom South East still use these graphics! They seem to be using all the old graphics, including the long LIVE aston and cyan name astons. In fact, they dropped the old live aston (you know the one in the top right corner which used to be on the national news) months after everyone else did.

They must be hanging on until the relaunch
