- Trevor McDonald presents the opening few minutes of the nightly news on Tuesday, 24th November, 1998 - that historic day on which the concept of hereditary peers was abolished. (The fact that, 25+ years later, we still have hereditary peers should tell you all you need to know about the way the world works.) Needless to say, Tony Blair and William Hague politely discuss well-founded good-faith political points of view with dignity and decorum. Paddy Ashdown's there, too.
Other parts of the Queen's speech include welfare reform, giving the NHS a helping hand, the 'modernisation of the country', and a vote on lowering the same-sex age of consent. Knowing what we know now, I can think of some members who might have been of the opinion that that last one didn't go far enough.

From ITN, News at Ten, with Trevor McDonald.
So, we now go back in time to the start of a News at Ten, not long after you posted the 'very last one' from 1999. LOL. :D I had actually forgotten about this and the accompanying ads from before. At least you remembered. :) Thanks again.
And thank _you!_ Time very much isn't a straight line on my channel. :-)
@@VideotapeFTW I know, you just upload what you want to upload, never mind about keeping a straight timeline. Besides that's the magic of nostalgia, you can go back to it at any time. ;)
