The end of the ITV strike which had blacked out the entire channel from august to October that year. This is the first programme on it's return on October 24th 1979. Top stories involve Laker flight, Jim Callaghan's battle with the Labour left and the end of the ITV strike coming third. this continues with amongst other stories, the return of filming in Coronation Street.
The recording continues into highlights of that nights programming and a brief extract of Dudley Moore on The Muppets.

@nishlord The Muppets was screened in the late 1970s as the first programme to be shown after Thames handed over to LWT in the London area.

@agfagaevart I think that the IBA used it during their Engineering Announcements bulletin but had been in use since 1970. The main ITV blocked logo actually came into use in 1981 just as the design of the Channel 4 logo came into fruition.

@25AUG1968 In those days, BREMA and JICTAR used to measure their audiences into millions as there were only three channels back then.

Newer news: Labour's lax morality has helped standards crash through the floor. Just look around you.
But people are truly waking up, not with just a little help from the Web.

Thank you for posting this (and the previous part!). Given that this must have been recorded at home, the video quality is amazing for the time. Apologies for the anorak nature of this remark, I'm guessing that this must have been recorded on Betamax? (considerably superior to VHS...)

I love 1:45 where Leonard Parkin comments on Julie Goodyear and Peter Adamson kissing: "What will his wife say?"
