BBC News Daytime Summaries

A major plank of the BBC’s new daytime service in 1986 was the provision of hourly news summaries, including weather and regional headlines. These were introduced on 8th December 1986. The summaries were shown on BBC1 until lunchtime, after which they moved to BBC2. Sadly, the summaries disintegrated during the 1990s and are now superfluous in this era of 24 hour news.
