Great to hear Redvers Kyle's voice again, a great part of my life growing up listening to announcements from Redvers. Always seem to remember his regularly used phrase during technical issues, "The gremlins appear to be in the works....." 👍
I'm sure I wasn't the only kid to pretend to conduct the orchestral to this in the 70's! I love it. I never found out where the orchestral recording was made. Nice visual representation 😃
@@j0hnf_uk Thanks for the info. I wonder where it was recorded? My guess would be in the YTV studios themselves as they had all the facilities there, but I suppose it could have been recorded anywhere.

The legendary Redvers Kyle doing the continuity announcement….RIP Redvers
The composer is Derek New, the melody based around the 'Ilkla Moor Bah T'at' refrain. Ron Goodwin delivered a Dambusters-style arrangement.
Derek New's other well-known piece was "College Boy", used as the signature to "University Challenge" since the late 1960s.
I so wish this tune was available to purchase.
Hello fellow guy from Killamarsh! 🙂
Great piece of music.
Spot on in getting the YTV ident coming in right where it should be
Brilliantly done

I still do when there is no one in the house. Brilliant peice of music.
'Yorkshire Television March', by Derek New, arranged by Ron Goodwin. The same chap who did the music to, '633 Squadron', and, 'The Battle of Britain.'

It probably wasn't but the world seemed a much simpler place back then.
Such a shame that itv stripped all their reginal stations of their individual identity to come under one umbrella
Colour bars or no colour bars they are the sort of bars you can't buy a drink in .
*CEVRON OF DOOM!!!*
Nice to see this again but there was another theme that I thought was better. however I can't in heavens name remember how it went Any ideas?
If you search for the 1982 startup the music is on there, it was also used as the Calendar theme for a while as well 😀
@@Osgoldcross Thank you very much. I will take a look later.
