  • It's exactly 40 years since the very first edition of Channel 4 News. Our top stories? Rather familiar: spending cuts, strikes, and British involvement in an overseas war.
    Some of the familiar faces have changed but we've kept on striving to bring you the most diverse voices and the most challenging journalism - along with just a dash of mischief.
    Here are some of the highlights of the last four decades - in four minutes.

    Thank you for all the good work you have done over the last 40 years. As a ten-year-old, the launch of a very snowy/grainy Channel 4 at 16.45 pm was something special and it remains one of the most memorable moments on TV. As for Channel 4 news, I vaguely remember the TV Times advertising it as britain's first hour-long news. Happy birthday, C4.

    I would imagine like so many people who have followed C4 news over these last 40 years including me,I have sometimes disagreed with some of your editorial decisions you have made in covering various stories but thank you for never shying from how you covered and presented the news even the uncomfortable ones to us and getting behind front page headlines but also the stories that never make the headlines but there is still something of worth to report.As the 18th century french philosopher Denis Diderot once said “All things must be examined, debated, investigated without exception and without regard for anyone's feelings.”

    I remember watching Jon Snow from a very young age!! After Jon Snow, it’s Krishen Gurumurthy who has been the channel4 news anchor. A very suitable person to pass the baton on too. I just hope and pray that Krishen stays for the next few decades and hands over the baton at the right time to the right person.
    Lots of love to the whole team!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

    Jon Snow should have been kept on. He did not plan to retire as I understand it. If so, why was he replaced. By far the best presenter of the programme by a country mile, empathetic and engaged in stories. He had the best and most moving interactions with the public I have seen of any journalist on television, notably though not exclusively when he reported from Grenfell Tower for several days in the aftermath of the disaster. Channel 4 has other excellent journalists like Krishnan Guru Murthy and Alex Thomson but Jon Snow is the best in the last forty years.

    4 decades, probably over 40 different faces and one mainstream media news programme that faced every challenge that was thrown at them. Somethings never change though, the studio set/room which has been in existence since January 1999 and the famous theme song that always opens the show every night and may that continue. Happy birthday Channel Four News.

    I miss the old theme. I have to say that (apart from the wonderful constant of John Snow) this channel’s news coverage has been truly outstanding of late. It still suffers from the domestic issues around politics coverage, where all channels, “play the game,” with Westminster so as to keep in the good books and get those exclusive interviews, which undermines our democracy and has contributed to its slow erosion over the years. But their coverage of the Ukraine war has been outstanding.

    *****(BLOOD of JESUS CHRIST)***** that we can acquire complete Forgiveness by Accepting Jesus as our Savior, and ask 4 FORGIVENESS of your SINS, and accept that JESUS shed His BLOOD 2 atone for your Sins if u repent.
    Then PRAISE the name of GOD. And then ask God for HELP with anything that you need help with.
