The 9 O’clock news with Robert Dougal and Richard Whitmore from Friday 12th January 1973. Lead Story: The Freeze phase 2. The main evening bulletin against a backdrop of the BBC newsroom. Not a PC in sight! The newsroom was actually keyed in behind the presenters! Note the similarity between the title graphic and that used around 1987. Double headed presentation started on the 13th November 1972.
