A party political broadcast by Mrs Thatcher and some Blackadder mixed with your snooker in 1988.

Seems a strange track to show. Must have been at the time ITV had rights to some tracks and BBC others.

Well yes its that one, its just not a very important racecourse even now. Think their biggest race of the season was downgraded this year.

Aye a few were, i recall Epsom and Ascot doing the same. Big empty rooms with loads of car parking, suppose it makes sense.

22nd April 1984.
Captain Hobo will be enthralled as we find "Australian Cinema" season in a snooker sandwich on BBC2. A word in there hasn't aged too well.

I guess it's a bulletin to give an update on what's been going on while it was off air.
