Is it just me or does the newsreader for Look North bear a resemblance to Richard Hammond?
-
Yeah, they are still in New Bridge Street. The weather map and studio confirm that. When they moved to Fenham, they got a whole new look.

The North East News no doubt came from that then-new building featured so prominently in Geordie Racer ...
Network announcer is David Miles, and the RT trailer is voiced by Charles Nove. I suspect that's Roger Limb music at the start of the trailer (I neither know nor care whether he had anything to do with that particular version of the DW theme).
I don't think they moved out of the New Bridge Street studios and into the 'pink palace' until Jan 1988. I have some recordings about that but they aren't dated.
