Legal and General sponsored the local weather for every region except Thames. Carlton and Meridian also had L&G for a while too.

IIRC I don't think Channel or Scotland had it either.


Apologies that is correct.

Any idea who had Channel though?

OK, skipping forward a bit now but does anyone know the regions that were sponsored by BMI Baby in the Mid/Late-2000's and early 2010's. They definitely sponsored Wales and Border but not so sure about the rest. STV used to have Kwik-Fit through the 90's to the 2000's but stopped in the late stages of the decade and began to be sponsored by (I think) FlyBe

I think they sponsored Community Link, rather than the weather in both regions. YTV Weather was long term sponsored by Yorkshire Electricity from the mid 90s until the 00s


I think you're right. The tag-line was "linking you to the community" which would make sense on the Community Link announcements. Must have been around 1998-99.

I have to salute the people who matched Channel 4 afternoons with ear wax.
