Variant: Starting in 1979, it just shows the first frame of the intro tinted in blue. "BBC NEWS", in a sans-serif font this time, zooms in. The text then disappears before transitioning as normal.

Audio: TBA

1985 variant

Visuals: On a black background with a red stripe in the centre of the screen, white lines come in from either the left or right side to form a segmented circle. A flashing white rectangle appears below the stripe, and then "types" in "BBC NEWS". The rest is TBA.
