[00:00:00] PROGRAMME PROMOTION: for Casualty.

The new series continues tomorrow at 8.05pm on BBC One.

[00:00:19] CAMPAIGN PROMOTION: for Children in Need.

A Northern Ireland-specific trail, with details of how to apply for a fundraising pack.

[00:00:50] IDENT: one of the standard BBC One Northern Ireland idents – Balloon/Welsh 11 – is used to link into Weekend Watchdog.

[00:01:03] PROGRAMME: the first minute or so of Weekend Watchdog.

Our clip includes the opening preview of what’s coming up in the programme, as well as the opening titles. Presenter: Anne Robinson.

The picture/sound glitch at [00:01:09] is the BBC Northern Ireland continuity desk being taken out of circuit. Yes, it was that bad – and the audio did drop out briefly – it’s not a VHS player exaggerating the issue.

We also see Matt Allwright briefly, kicking off a link about his contribution to the programme.
