During this era of BBC1, each region of the UK would transmit a junction between each programme, either out of vision or in vision, giving details of later programmes and the one about to be transmitted. Also, BBC1 used to close down each night and just prior to closedown the regions would transmit a late night news bulletin, play The Queen, and then remind everyone to switch their TVs off.
