Thames Television

An evocative montage of Thames TV’s greatest hits was transmitted frequently throughout the final week, and at the final closedown on 31/12/1992. Clips of Thames actors and personalities like Michael Aspel, Eamon Andrews, Peter Bowles, Leo McKern, Prunella Scales and Penelope Keith, alongside the legendary series Minder, The Sweeney, Rumpole of the Bailey, The Bill and The Naked Civil Servant were intercut with a film countdown. Annie Lennox and The Tourists provided the soundtrack, a cover version of I Only Wanna Be With You.
