TV-am clip (12/2/88)

Richard Keys, Trish Williamson, Anne Diamond, Mike Morris, and Gordon Honeycomb all show up in this decently long-ish clip of TV-am from Friday, 12th February, 1988. There are two news bulletins - and, though they both start the same, they are different, so don't go skipping - and three ad breaks (Transformers, Battle Beasts, and Swinton car insurance specifically for "lady drivers" caught my eye the most) to get your teeth into, plus the opening of Good Morning Britain, which promises a lot but unfortunately the tape runs out before we really get into it. Sorry about that. So anyway, job cuts at Ford, a European budget crisis, nurses and other healthcare workers annoyed at the NHS being throttled, one of President Reagan's advisers turning out to be crooked, Man City and Liverpool seemingly trying to outdo each other in entirely the wrong way, an earthquake in California... but, best of all, the launch of a new space program that promised a permanent space station, a mission to Mars, and a base on the moon by "early next century". I can't wait for the oh-so-futuristic year 2000. One tiny piece of uninteresting trivia: Eddy Grant (mentioned as a guest coming on later) had opened the previous night's edition of Top of the Pops with his latest hit Gimme Hope Jo'anna.
