Peter Brook is the announcer, and John Braban voices the New Drama trailer (which I think looks and sounds quite different from anything you'd have got a year earlier - the 80s were now with us).
Another popular announcer in those days was John Glover. One interesting sight on Thames was David Hamilton who moonlighted as an announcer as well as presenting the afternoon show on Radio 2.
was the clip at 4:01 from monty python's flying circus?

Probably none.
