BBC1 Closedown 1987

14th April 1987 - An early night for BBC1 with Peter Bolgar shutting up shop just before midnight

What an amazing time capsule! How wonderful to hear Peters silky voice enunciating correctly. Nowadays the voice over would no doubt be someone with a “diverse and inclusive” accent…

Peter Bolgar is the perfect announcer for that Music for the Masses caption.

Interesting that they come off air before midnight. BBC One sometimes goes to overnight news at 00:15-00:30, but not really before then…
