A young looking John Humphries! Love the old weather maps and telling you what the weather will be the next day. Unlike the forecasters these days who spend half the time telling you what weather we've just had, then over dramatising what weather we will be getting and getting it wrong.
Imagine the outcry now if they played the national anthem in Scotland
And you notice the announcer saying "Good night and good morning."
5:38 - I'm not quite sure about this, but I *think* that caption is telling me it's time for the Scottish News?? ;)

They should have made it clearer.
Good to see Rangers were gubbed by Alloa.😀
Still using a mechanical clock in Scotland. England started using the computerised one on 5th December 1981.
Did the announcer say 6.35 Doctor who ? On the screen it says 6.25 Doctor Who

6:25 would have been the correct time, most episodes of the original Doctor Who run were 25 minutes.
Out of vision news?? Was this typical in 1983? Im amazed.

Nope, Bob Logan, who was head of presentation at the time. He was also the husband of my 3rd year English teacher.
8:51 - maintenance of aerial by IBA?

Yeah, that's the Independent Broadcasting Authority maintaining one of the transmitter aerials for ITV or Channel 4 (the IBA were the Government regulator over commercial TV and radio in the UK until 1990). The ITV (Grampian TV) 405-line TV service ended early from Rumster Forest in April 1983, so they were probably removing the redundant 405-line aerials at the time of this closedown, or the IBA were installing the Channel Four transmitting aerials prior to the transmitters themselves being installed, as Rumster Forest would begin transmitting C4 from February 1984. They might even have been doing both 405-line aerial removal and Channel Four aerial installation at the same time in one go.
Shame that BBC Scotland didn't use their anthem unlike in Wales and N. Ireland.

BBC NI didn’t use the Northern Irish anthem either.
