Gee I wish I had lived in a Non-Aggregated region....despite the gaps you knew it was being put together by passionate locals and wasn't coming from a capital city.

This is almost identical to how the news and sign off for stations in America was. Just so Weird hearing a different national anthem melody at sign off, Very Cool though. I can see how Australians would be proud.

Except providing station information. It's news, psa's, and then the national anthem.

The Classifieds were typed up placed two side by side, when going to the next sheet, the rig would be pulled to one side , showing one of the pages. to show the next page it would be pulled back the other way with the page that was out of view being changed for the next one. IIRC as a friend did that job at rts5a. Both were owned by allan Scott- hence the similarities

thats very 'primative' for 1995

It looks like it came from 1985 rather than 1995!

I guess the particular anthem Montage was from the 80s.

Seeing the 2 clocks on SES 8 is how I found out that SA is half an hour behind VIC.

If I hadn't seen actual dates I would have thought this was more 1985.

6:44-6:50 "We're a part of you, you're looking great on 8!"

7:01 yes,specially in the middle of nowhere in a heartattack and eaten bys snakes

0:04 you’re the part of us, you’re looking great on 8. SES-TV 8 Ident 1995

1:51 gee, what tongue twisting

Considering what I've seen from other regionals in that period it is quite good, especially since it is independant.

I'm not a fan of "Advance Australia Fair", seems underwhelming as an anthem, but this interpretation along with video was superbly done. Signed, a Seppo.

Who's the news presenter with Jeff Sly?

Yep, your right.....I have seen the promos for RTS 5a and SES 8. They have the same music...just the words are slightly different. NTD8 Darwin is also the same...They might have been part of a network before the amalgamation.

@promopal NTD8 Darwin used the Love you... slogan that 7 Brisbane and Perth used as well

Allan Scott (yes, Scott's Transport etc) owned many of the shares of RTS-5A hence the same imaging package. (Geoff Sly in a double breasted suit - peculiarily amusing!)

did SES-8 begin in 1965, or 1966?

March 1966. Only took 9 years to get noticed.

Same music as the jingle for RTS-5a Just changed the words. I dare say they were under the same ownership even before they became WIN-SA. Still good video though

advance Australia fair!

Wow, that is an odd mix of relatively high-tech, and practices that would have been considered antiquated in the early 1980s on British TV 😁 Even my local UK station (Tyne Tees) that was small and had presentation considered a bit clunky and out of date was ahead of this. How charming though. Bet it's currently all the same anonymous character-vacuum that all television is these days.

Rural area low audience number TV station. It gets much worse than this for Australian rural TV stations in the 1960s to early 1980s. Cardboard advert slides, etc. But today with satellite linking, the difference between rural and city TV stations is much harder to discern.

@@FrozenDoberman Thanks. It wasn't a criticism by the way, there's something very endearing about small TV stations and I think the broadcasting world is a poorer place without this kind of thing - it was just the classifieds section that amazed me - you'd think it'd actually be cheaper to just load the captions into a chyron/Aston. I can only think this was done for artistic/historic reasons? I'm also being unfair with the comparison. I looked Mount Gambier up - 30,000 people. This must have been a really small outfit - which makes their output really look quite impressive considering everything. "Small" in Britain is very different - the station I referenced broadcasts to over two million and has produced a number of internationally-sold programmes, so it's an unfair comparison!

@JHollowayNetwork 1966

ewww the weatherman said moist at 3:56

Haha, they have the same jingle as 5A TV.

Any idea who wrote this song?

Definitely outdated for 1995.
