I like the Yorkshire ones, the current Granada ones are quite good too.

I like Anglia Weather, except for the Sun Life sponsorship bit it's good - very calming and I LOVE the guitar riff! dlun-di-di-dun-di-di-dun-di-di-dun

Anyone remember news 24's little stings during the weather when they put up something like a weather warning a thunder sound effect played over a moving graphic which looked really cool. Shame they dissapered really.

By the way, I recommend you download the 'Yorkshire Electricity Home Services End Titles Summary Chart' from TV BOX.

If you notice right at the end, there is a funny noise.

This actually was always heard on TV, (Its not a fault with the realvideo), any ideas where it came from?


It sounds like the very first note of the local YTV ident. Must have come ons traight after the weather.

It used to occur everytime though, as if it was a brief bit of the Granada weather or Tyne Tees weather ending, or something like that.
