First of all, moderators and admins, if this should be moved to the Programmes section, please do so.
I'm curious as to the BBC and ITV regional sports news programmes, broadcast on a Saturday teatime in the 1980s and 1990s, and what they were called, regular presenters. Here in central Scotland, it was simply Reporting Scotland on BBC1, usually Bill Mcfarlane as presenter, and Scotland Today or Scottish news on STV (Scotsport Results was a separate programme, basically an opt out of the ITV results service). I know in BBC North East and Cumbria, it was Saturday Sport, and Tyne Tees had Saturday Special, whilst BBC North West had Sport North West.
What were the others called, and did they have any special music and titles?
