Just shows how great the themes were back in the seventies - this, world in action, weekend world etc.

Absolutely right. In addition to iconic themes like this, the ITV regions used to have an identity so you knew where the programmes were made; Yorkshire, Anglia, Central… no idea where anything is made now because it comes under the generic ITV umbrella 😢

Calendar went out nightly to an audience of nearly 3 million people. It was produced to be more than just news, it was there to entertain and to promote Yorkshire! Family friend and Dragonara pianist Bert Gaunt was a regular musical contributor 👍🏻 all put together in one day - incredible

Roger Greenwood would do his interviews often someone sport related and he’d be smoking a cigarette during the interview. Just shows how times have changed.

Bring back this theme music now!. It's far better than the rubbish used nowadays. The opening titles with the calender pages rolling over was a bit naff but the theme was great. Come on itv bring it back.

" Ya can't haden ya big fat baden. Ya can't haden ya big. Ya can't haden ya big fat baden. Ya can't haden ya big". Those were the lyrics that the Yorkshire tv staff gave to this theme tune according to my reliable source from the gold old days of ytv calendar.
