In-vision continuity out of Rosie and Jim and into Home and Away on Granada. The Central announcer Mike Prince (I'm pretty sure) does the Rosie and Jim video plug from Central TX in Birmingham, before Granada's Beverly Ashworth takes over. Is it just me or does the v/o at the end of the Sea Dragon trailer sound suspiciously like it's been edited to say "on ITV" rather than the region that made the promo?
1990, all copyright remains ITV plc.
I remember Beverley Ashworth and the other Granada continuity announcers as a child, like the great Charles Foster and Colin Weston as that was my region...I remember hearing that she was stalked by a weirdo in the early 1990s and left Granada after the guy was prosecuted..Shame, as she was really nice.

Beverly looked nicer with her perm.

Hi Beverley from a Central Areas guy. A big change in hair style from 2 years previous.
Were you writing a book back then?...I seem to remember.
Hope you are keeping well.

The Sea Dragon v/o sounds an awful lot like it's Rusty Lee!
Good clip.

Yeah, it's definately Mike Prince doing the video plug.
They should have got a better v/o to do that Sea Dragon trail!
