Sorry - forgot all about the Midlands, which probably got ITV not long after London. I know it was rather later in the Anglia region, but they did have a splendid theme, with a knight on a horse! For those who missed out on Torchy, it was a pretty hi-tech CGI production known the world over for its production standards: 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange when you look back to when TV programmes were broadcast for a few hours each evening, and ending with the National Anthem and the disappearing dot.
