The title music to ATV's 'Seeing Sport' - Mondays at 5pm in 1965.
ATV presents the best children's programme of all time...
"This is Michael Prince on behalf of ATV Network which provides your Monday to Friday programme on channels 8 and 12 broadcasting on the Midland transmitters of the Independent Television Authority."
It's 1974 and the prospect of competition from the new BRMB looms, so ATV decides to refresh their look and sound. Out goes 'Sir Lew Grade March' and in comes Johnny Pearson's 'Midland Montage' (first item), along with a mostly unused suite of jingles, beds and replacements for the 'Zoom 2' ident.
ATV in Birmingham starts the day with the "Sir Lew Grade March", then Trevor Lucas takes us into 'Yoga for Health' with Richard Hittleman.
