Most of the one-minute countdown into a schools programme on ITV. Not sure of the precise date though.

[00:00:00] COUNTDOWN: the familiar mechanical countdown clock used by ITV Schools and Colleges from 1978 until 1987.

In this case, counting down to Insight.

The track accompanying the countdown is Spring to Life 2.

[00:00:57] PRE-PROGRAMME IDENT: Yorkshire TV pre-programme ident. It seems like a newer version of the Yorkshire TV ident and fanfare was overlaid over the original here – but we still catch the tail end of the old fanfare.
