"I'll let you into a secret - it can sing as well!" Priceless :) and the 1974 theme tune is pretty cool also.

itv are nowhere near as good as the BBC at election night results.

Really...? The US election coverage from ITN in November last year, for me personally, was just as good (if not better) than the BBC's election programme. ITV did feel a tad intimate, what with it being anchored solely from the studio in London, but still had brilliant analysis and top-notch coverage from their correspondents across the US. ITV are just as good as the BBC when it comes to the bigger news stories IMO.

A younger Peter Snow too. Was that Alistair Burnett in 1964?

[Durbs75]

It was AB, yes.

If you are on about the presenter at the beginning, that was Nicholas Owen who is now with the BBC.

Peter Sissons makes an appearance at about 4 mins and 5 mins into the film.

[MarkPBerne]

Er, no it isn't!

Lol!! You obviously haven't watched this video then. My advice would be to make sure of the facts before posting ill-educated opinions in future.
