BBC Breakfast Time | 9 May 1986

From the http://www.transdiffusion.org/ archives... The BBC starts the day with its lovely opening sequence of shots of people and things starting their day, which segues into the Breakfast Time title sequence. Then Frank Bough appears - at 6:50am, oddly - to tell us the main headlines - the Liberal/SDP Alliance won the Ryedale by-election, the Tories held Derbyshire West with a majority of just 100, and Labour swept the local elections.
