Yep - just to satisfy your curiosity, you can hear John Suchet mention the move to 12.30pm in the final moments of Leonard Parkin's last News at One (July 1987). A trailer for the new programme follows the closing credits: http://youtu.be/q3ibL7XoLqA?t=7m59s
Also, this video shows the minimalist/silver era News at One with news stories clearly from 1989 (the Tiananmen Square massacre): http://youtu.be/a7OdrXL3XKk?t=30s

The Salmon Pink and Brown ones are definitely in the wrong order. Not so sure on the silver ones, didn't think the 12:30 move was immediately after Leonard Parkin retired, though I could be wrong, as I would have been a bit more concerned with exams rather than TV presentation around that era.
