"ITV SCHOOLS - THE TERMS AHEAD" PRESENTATION - DECEMBER 1986

In the 80s, selected ITV Schools programmes from the Spring and Summer terms would often get a preview showing in either early January or early December, after the Autumn Term finished or before the Spring Term began. These were billed under various banners such as 'Out of School' or, as in this example, 'The Terms Ahead'. Whilst the standard ITV Schools service was networked by ATV and Central, it appears that other members of the ITV Network took turns in networking these previews, so the presentation style varied. Normally the programmes ran from 9.30am until approx 11am. In December 1986, 'The Terms Ahead' was shown on Monday 1 December, Tuesday 2 December and Thursday 4 December. Schools programmes postponed from earlier in the term were shown on Wednesday 3 December, as you will see advertised in the footage. Programmes from 12 November were postponed due to the State Opening of Parliament, and I believe a breaking news story meant that TVam coverage was extended on 15 October. These clips are from the Monday and Tuesday, and it appears to be Granada who were responsible for The Terms Ahead presentation that year - can anyone confirm the announcers are Charles Foster and Jim Pope? The slide at the beginning, shown on the Monday, is their local copy of the networked slide used the previous week, and on the Wednesday. The mic was faded up a little late on the first clip! Quite a slick cut from the network announcer to Tyne Tees stalwart Bill Steel who gives out the contact details for the local education officer who at the time was Andrea Kinghorn. True to his own style, he repeats the address, which the TC obviously wasn't expecting, so he appears in vision for part of this announcement.
