Thames Weekend News

Thames Weekend News was a bulletin produced by Thames for London Weekend Television on Friday evenings. This became necessary from January 1982 when the 7pm Thames to LWT hand-over was moved forward to 5.15pm, but it seemed bizarre for LWT to effectively hand back to Thames even for a short while. The main Friday evening news bulletin was during the Six O’clock show.
