Tricia was a brilliant newscaster. Authoritative and trusting in her work. Died far too young in 1996 at the age of 50. Eff cancer.

Love the warmth and naturalness of Tricia's sign-off at the end. But also how tight the timings (of music, vision mixing and words) are at the beginning and end of the bulletin. Seems to me everything is much less exact these days. Perhaps due to the delays introduced by digital encoding and satellite-based transmission?
