Thanks, that's a 10-second longer version than the one I had and slightly pitched better Thumbs up

You're welcome! I have it on good authority that the 1987 music was a special commission (i.e. not library) so, here you go:

It would certainly be asking too much for copies the revamped 5:45 and 5:40 themes Wink . The Ken Elliott synth version was very much of the 1970s/80s era, much like his News at One theme, and you knew exactly what bulletin was coming on. Happy days.

Some great uploads here - do the ITN News at 5.45 (88-89) and ITN News at 5.40 (89-92) themes exist and aren't library?

Those themes are not library.

If you're sure they're not library, I've uploaded them along with a couple of other themes from the same era that I know aren't library. This should complete the set.

Deffo not library, Only from 1989 did ITN start using Library piece or edited library's piece or creating music and then placing them on the library's like STV.

Thank you so much! Superb uploads. From what I can remember the bed on the 5:40 was slightly different in beat?

Could anyone find an clean version of the ITN Super Channel News/World News opening and closing themes from 1987 (from the days when John Suchet was still presenting the ITN Super Channel News/World News) as heard in this video?
