Sky News

After over 10 years on Sky, Sky News finally joined Digital Terrestrial with the launch of Freeview in October 2002. Sky initially supplied 3 free-to-air channels to the service in total; Sky News, Sky Sports News and Sky Travel, although this was subject to many changes in the following years. In the month running up to the terrestrial launch, this promo started playing out on all 3 channels. It basically covers all 3 of the channels in order... although it's not exactly clear if there was a main starting point. Information text scrolls along the bottom of the screen.

Special titles for Sky News, reporting on the latest happenings during the Iraq War in 2003, live from Baghdad.

One of several short segments scattered throughout the Sky News schedule geared around the advertising sponsorship attached to it, rather than the news. Here in 2011, Dial A Flight sponsor the 'Destinations Report' by Nazaneen Ghaffar - essentially someone standing in front of the weather screen to promote a particular holiday location. Well, it helps pay the leccy bill for those big video walls!
