Just to give you a run-down, Heather McCarthy signs off, followed by the generic sting. The weather presenter is crouched on the floor, on the telephone. The gallery quickly fade into the News 24 sting. Following this, not on the clip above, were two trails and then the weather! She didn't mention anything though!

Very good!

Was it 1471 she was dialing?

lol, for some reason it just seems to have disappeared!! I thought I;d post an announcement, as a few people may like the video clip, and there aren't many online at the moment!

HEHEHEHE and LOL @ That!

I notice that from watching Harry Gration on the Super League Show today (I watch ALL of BBC Leeds' output, Super League Show, Close Up North, North of Westminster), one of the backstage people got on camera too!
