I'm sure I've waxed on about the quality of these uploads before, but its so good to see a properly de-interlaced and upscaled 50fps upload. Probably wouldn't otherwise see stuff like this - even in TV shows with old clips you find crappy conversions. Good job!
I’ve got every single master copy of all George Fenton’s BBC News themes between 1985 and 1999, all breakfast, The Politics Show + every Newsnight editions in crisp-clear stereo.
I remember watching/listening to this from 1983 onwards when I was 4 years old, and I've always wondered if it had a name or who composed it. Very probably it was produced by the BBC radiophonic workshop.
5:47 The football violence was a sign of things to come Why didn't Thatcher ban English clubs from European competition there and then? We could have avoided the Heysel disaster.I bet she regretted not doing so after the Heysel disaster.
I feel you are misusing the word "evil" in your comment. Unions were banned at GCHQ was because of the sensitive nature of the work done there during the cold war, as unions were full of left wing communist sympathisers. Even if you think this was wrong its hardly evil. Stalin, Chairman Mao, Pol Pot, Robert Mugabe, Colonel Gadaffi were evil mass murderers. Thatcher had her faults but wasn't in their league when it came to being evil.
The House of Lords (Supreme Court) ruled conditionally in favour of the government on this issue at the time. The case report probably gives a good idea of the context for both sides
@PHILLIP GREER The unions are there for workers rights. Those unions and workers rights that still exist that is. They aren't there to disrupt society and bring the UK to a standstill. That has never been the union's aim. The unions have never ground the country to a halt. The tories are usually in office to remove workers rights and keep them removed. Regarding the coal mines in the esrly 1980's, she shut them down purely to remove a union. The unions have zero connection with Moscow communism, nor the Eastern bloc communism when it existed, nor Chinese communism. The unions had no aims for the then UK nationalisation to go further per in the USSR and China. There has never been a communist government or communist PM in the UK.

Cool, where did you find them?
Via a contractor on the 4th floor at TVC, pushed the buttons to play the jingles on a CD, when the Silicon Graphics computer played the titles.
Will you share them online?
@@jacksugden8190 Would you please upload them to UA-cam and/or Soundcloud?
Thanks for uploading.
“Nineteen hundred and eighty three” 😅
what is this BBC News music called, does anyone know the name of this music theme, who composed it and what is the title.

Why do you keep commenting with incorrect dates?

Simply annulling a union! I'd almost forgotten how evil Thatcherism was.
and she didn't hang about
