I've never seen this before, BBC2 closing down with a clip from a cello concerto. I know the national anthem was never played on BBC2, but this is a really beautiful way to close down.
The music used for the Radio Times promo sounds very much like Dave Gilmour of Pink Floyd.
A nice bit of music.
BBC 2 continuity announcer leading into closedown was John Glover.
43 years ago.
Nice to see all the old tv too.
Border lwt and Southern idents so too.
Clock 0:08am
Nice music there too.
Ah yes, that's Cello Concerto in D major playing there. Obvs I knew that. Definitely didn't Shazam it.
Laurel and Hardy broadcast after midnight!
Usually 5pm or so!
The first programme to be shown in the evenings started at 6.55pm! Prior to that, the only thing on BBC2 was Open University and Play School. Such was their summer schedule.
@@j0hnf_uk Yes, I recall the good old days when TV was not the ubiquitous, incessant stream of poo that it has become now. Late night showing of Laurel and Hardy must have been unusual - even back in 1981. My memory is that Stan and Olly were usually shown at Christmas time, when broadcasters would begin earlier. Anyway, great find.
Name of announcer?
I wonder when granada started using the gold and glass box on the Picture Box credits? There's an early version in UA-cam with different titles and theme that feature a kaleidoscope pattern
'Sin on Saturday', one of the very few BBC shows to be cancelled mid-season. Must have been pretty bad
BBC 1 continuity announcer was Malcolm Eynon.
The Driver Fatigue ad voiceover was done by Patrick Troughton in my tv area. It was a frightening ad to watch as a child. The way Mr. Troughton said: "FOR GOOD!" at the end: 😱.
Arthur Negus Enjoys...wandering about a bit and having a gander at some old sideboards. Let's set the VHS for that one.
Bernard Falk and Arthur Negus. Together at last.
Oh my those adverts were so classic!
I would have been twelve and about to start my second year at senior school back then!
HAZEL MCWITCH FROM RENTAGHOST IN THE FLASH AD AND WAS IN THE BLUEBELLS POP VIDEO YOUNG AT HEART 1984
£6.96??
PRES have got their copy of the "Eye in the Sky" LP. Tell me it's 1982 etc....
That's Patrick Stewart with a face that looks very familiar..... Not Jon Pertwee???
Love the way Maggie nudges John Knott back out of the way at the 2:34 mark! "Shift, you've said your speech now back inside, I'm the boss! " 🤣🤣

Hazel Mcwitch 😂
For years I had BJ And The Bear mixed up with Me And The Chimp.
ITN for their news programmes always waited around 2 seconds before starting their news to ensure each region had opted in safely into the networked news. BBC One regions on the other hand had a bad habit of crashing into the news theme, as the some regions weren't in sync.
"second chance" was another way of saying summer repeat as this was repeat season for the BBC
Cardinal Hume goes "searching for god", god goes & hides as he knows what type of man Hume was, a man when he was in charge of Ampleforth College, covered up child sex abuse by his fellow Benedictine priests. Hume was good friends with Jimmy Savile and nominated Savile for membership of the Athenaeum Club.
The Sun newspaper advert was produced on video, whereas the other adverts were produced on film. You can see the difference. Also nice to hear the noise of the film at the end of each advert.
Poor ITV - the whole network was heading into a massive bucket of pig crap with the unions. The slow start to disruption of programming had started a few weeks earlier, but it would build up to 10th August 1979, the day the whole network fell off air (apart from tiny Channel Television in the channel islands, who remained on air with an emergency 6 hour per day schedule throughout the strike).
I've got loads of this stuff on old tapes. Probably ready to go to the tip the next time we move house.

Yes - I was eleven and about to start senior school!
Anne Murray with special guest Ralph McTell - turn the volume up to 11!!
The BBC 2 continuity announcing was John Glover
Andrew Gardner away from his usual employers on the other side.
Years before Celine Dion and Avril Lavigne, there was... Anne Murray repping for Canada on the world stage.
Who was the singer in the programme that was just ending?
@@MorristheMinor Peggy Lee.
@@Scatscar1985 Thanks, I wasn't sure.
never knew they aired season 6 of the fli...oh yeah...maybe they aired the season before which is why they are airing it again btw that was unexpected for me actually
And they always stuck the cricket on at "stupid o'clock."

This was the start of BBC2's first weekend with competition from Channel 4.
Just over a month before BBC1 changed the look of the mirror globe adopting the double lined BBC1 typeface & changing the colours of the islands from yellow to light green.
Announcer Richard Straker
Thanks for uploading this. Plater was such a wonderful writer.
I would have been eleven back then and on holiday, going from junior to senior school!
I was 13 and transferring from a secondary modern to a grammar school( we still had these in Cumbria until 1984 when the last three grrammars went comprehensive). Actually the system was weird: everyone had to do 2 years in a secondary modern before being assessed by a head of house whether they should go to the grammar school or spend another 3 years doing CSEs in the secondary modern. There was no formal exam like the 11 plus and quite often pushy middle class parents would insist their offspring would attend the grammar school even if they weren't very academic. This meant the grammar school was watered down and I was in a class with 3 lads who had absolutely no interest in subjects like German and English Liit.
1:44 the dirty side of the 1970’s Captain BirdsEye 😮 🎉
The kind of Sunday evening line-up when school homework actually looked preferable. Not that there would've been any as it was the summer holidays. And I was too young for school homework in 1981... but you catch my drift.
And some say TV was better back in the day!
I think it's more that it was Sunday in this case. Never the best day for TV.
"Discovering English Churches" with Donald Sinden was a lovely series and I'm so disappointed that it's never been released on DVD or made available on iplayer.
Or maybe the entirety of the programme got wiped out and so they couldn't able to release it on DVD and iPlayer
That's an unusually late scheduled closedown for a Sunday night in that era.
