  • Why did they have to remind you to turn off the TV? You may have had VHS tapes you wanted to watch or something!

  • Excellent stuff from my region - nice one, Granada! While Happy New Year would've been a good choice of song, The Way Old Friends Do is still a damn good and apt Abba song to let in the new year! Will be having this as my new year's closedown on my Facebook retro tv group! :D

  • must check to see if my tv is switched off : > )

  • Nothing wrong with the Royal Family Runome. After all Adolf Hitler was elected.

  • @happylad65

    Well, I actually remember New Year's Eve 1980, Robin AND the 1970s come to that!

  • @happylad65 I don't "diss any era after the 1970s", and I well know there were problems then - I just feel Britain has made profound mistakes in my lifetime, that's all.

  • Why couldn't we have got closedowns like this in the Yorkshire region? Not only did Lincolnshire people like me have to put up with a Yorkshire bias, we had crap news programmes, no in-vision continuity and not half the charm of Granada, who knew how to give a good send off!! I feel Lincolnshire has been short-changed as a region.

  • Happy new year 30 years to the day from 2011. That was a fantastic closedown we didn't have to listen to the Royal Families anthem(like the BBC) and the sincerity of the presenters and the song they chose to play out with was spot on. That song is something that we can all relate to and does not glorify the unelected. I hope that one day ITV and TV in general can be again stylish and sincere. All the best to everyone for the new Year may you all find happiness and fulfillment i n 2011

  • Now, THAT is the human touch.

    Watch, listen and LEARN ITV1!

  • You'd have thought they'd have gone for "Happy New Year"... it's on the same album! Nice close down though.
