BBC News 44 - 9th June 1944

For the 50th anniversary of D-Day in 1994, the BBC aired a series of mock BBC News broadcasts entitled "BBC News 44" on the anniversary of significant dates during the second world war, reporting events of the days as if it would've been on the day itself, though oddly with very 90s graphics and studio.
This particular news broadcast was about the events of the 9th June 1944.

For a minute I thought it was actually from 1944

If it was in black and white, I might have bought it. No way in hell the BBC had the budget for color back then, especially in wartimes...

I thought I imagined this. They also did it for VE Day in 1995.

The good old days, the days when the BBC had a great reputation.

Not gonna lie, I thought it was impressive BBC had the budget for colourized news reels during the war 🤣
