Mal Walden likes to say six-thirty a lot!

This one minute "HSV-7 Newswatch with Mal Walden" news headlines promo for Channel 7, Melbourne, Australia, 13th June 1984 contains early footage of Prince William and also shows Charles and Princess Dianna briefly. Apparently snow-making was a new phenomenon back then! Also, check the guy in the background, right at the start!
Also, as some of the comments point out, Mal says 6:30 rather a lot in one minute!

Anybody got the newsbreak where Mal loses it and tells all his colleagues behind him to shut the hell up, be fore turning back to the camera and apologising to the viewer?

Is there anywhere you can download this music? Was it off a library CD or composed for Seven? Or is it something else?

Four times in a minute. Not excessive.
