Cheers Steve! The ITV schools ones from the late 80s-early 90s were just the ones I remember - running to 92, which puts it dead on the right timeframe.

Nice to see one of the movie sequences there (30th anniversary switchover to C4) was actually recorded from Grampian TV (which is based about five minutes from my flat).

Okay...this is actually making me feel old now...but at the same time I'm just about bouncing off the walls, having grabbed back a little bit of my past that I can look back at again now. I'd actually remembered the graphics exactly right too!

Thanks!
