[00:00:00] PROGRAMME: Peter Woods recaps the main headlines, bringing the BBC Nine o’Clock News to its conclusion.

[00:00:30] PROGRAMME: a full national weather bulletin, presented by John Sherwood.

[00:01:50] PROGRAMME PROMOTION: for The Royal Wedding.

We “eavesdrop” on some of producer Michael Lumley’s preparations.

[00:02:57] PROGRAMME GRAPHIC: cross-channel promotion graphic for Maybury on BBC Two.

There seemed to have been a notable vision sync issue between the trail and the camera used to get this programme caption to air. The video machine used to play back this clip has probably made the issue look worse than it was.
