Long-running BBC news magazine for young children, originally hosted by John Craven. When Craven left the programme in 1989 the title simply became ‘Newsround’. Other hosts have included Paul McDowell, Juliet Morris, Helen Rollason and Krishnan Guru-Murthy. The opening theme tune is Ted Heath’s ‘Johnny One Note’, while the closing theme is the last few bars of ‘New Worlds’ by John Baker. The clips featured are from the 5th April 1976 edition.
