In 1999, ITV bosses knocked News at Ten out of its traditional time slot, to make way for feature-length movies and TV dramas that would hopefully grab them higher ratings, if shown in full without a break for the news. ITV national and regional news bulletins were shuffled around the schedule accordingly. ITV sold this to viewers with the slogan "TV Gets Better!" This is a London-specific version of the network promo, featuring Alastair Stewart and Mary Nightingale intercut with Trevor McDonald and Dermot Murnaghan.
