Richard Keys presents and Gordon Honeycomb reads the news in this TV-am clip from (we think) Thursday, 21st January, 1988. Top stories include worries about nurses going on strike, a potential presidential candidate being accused of corruption, and the draw for the Littlewoods Cup semi-finals. Luton went on to win it this season, believe it or not. Note how they make clear that regular weather forecaster Trish is on holiday - I suspect that's due to the industrial action at the studios, and they didn't want everyone to get the wrong idea. Unless she really had joined the strike, in which case they *did* want everyone to get the wrong idea.
There are two full ad breaks around Batman in this snippet, with highlights including Mr Sheen and Mighty White bread. I'm pretty sure Kattomeat changed its name to Arthur's not long after this, while I don't think I've seen waffles sold in packs of only four for years. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough. Check out that Supawrap ad, though - it's only T-Bag star Kellie Bright!
