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

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

[00:00:29] IDENT: one of the standard BBC One Northern Ireland idents – Balloon/Scottish 6 – is used to link into A Question of Sport.

[00:00:29] PROGRAMME: the first minute or so of an edition of Question of Sport, including the opening titles.

The programme is presented by Sue Barker. The team captains are Ally McCoist and John Parrott.

On Ally’s team: Steve Collins and Paula Radcliffe.

On John’s team: Phil Tufnell and David James.

The picture/audio glitches at [00:00:43] and [00:00:46] are the result of the BBC Northern Ireland continuity desk being taken out of circuit. Double-glitches like this were quite common on the analogue service at the time.
