- To find a Thames closedown has been one of my ambitions (along with finding closedowns from Granada, Scottish and Grampian, of which have never turned up), but I've finally found a Thames one from 1986.

One last reminder from Edwards and the beep tone.
More than you could possibly dream of. More than I *should* have seen, to be honest.
I've been familiar with this one for years :)
This is from Monday 3rd February 1986, at the beginning of the coldest month this side of 1963.
I've seen closedowns from all regions except Grampian.
coldest month since 1963? What, colder than Jan 79 or Dec 81-Jan 82?
That's 34 years today...
@dublinbrazilianblue actually I may have forgotten Channel when I made that post. I can't call to mind what their closedowns looked like, so I'm almost certain I haven't seen one ... I have *heard* a Channel closedown from 1969 though (well, definitely an afternoon closedown post-Morning Worship and possibly a late-night one) but I don't recall seeing one. My apologies!
... and indeed there are Grampian closedowns on here now. So Channel is pretty much the only one I'm missing.
Yay! Legendary Tom Edwards!
Nice bit of nostalgia Ned ;o)
There was a Channel TV closedown from 1994 I saw a few times. I can't seem to find it.
+essvee86 Not 1994, ITV went 24 hours in 1988.
@RobinCarmody You've seen a Channel closedown?? Where did you see that?
