This is a sad day for journalists and news junkies alike. Carol Barnes was a consumate professional newscaster, anchoring all of ITN's main news programmes on ITV, including News At Ten. She also launched Channel 4's first breakfast programme, the Channel 4 Daily. Some video clips for your perusal. First, the first edition of the Channel 4 Daily.
Next, an edition of ITN's News at 5.40, on the day that the 1991 ITV franchise round came to an end, and the fate of 4 of ITV's licencees is revealed.
Rest In Peace, Carol Barnes. You will be much missed.
