Ill be watching with great interest today.... youll unveil exit polls around 5pm my time here in the US East... and lemme tell ya something I cant help but think about how 248 years ago today, we told King George and England "we got this, Georgie, get lost!".... yet today you are voting in a new Parliament with people more qualified for office than the sludge we seem to vote in or even vote to nominate! So hopefully this will be a lesson for the US in how democracy is truly supposed to work!

That is seriously oppression and wants writing about. No prevention of dangers to kids is achieved by a voting age, and it is now 50 years since book Escape From Childhood, by school liberaliser John Holt, 1971, made the case that it's perfectly practical not to have one, and to start voting whenever personally motivated to. I passed British Con (now called Politics) O-level at 13, + no adult raving over it ever said a word about votes at that age as a result.

FYI from 1979 the effects might LOOK like CGI, but they are mostly done by hand animation and camera techniques, espescially "slitscan" (which was also used to produce the 'time tunnel' effects in the opening sequences for the early Tom Baker stories). Only in 1987 onwards (with the rotating Houses of Parliament) is it actually CGI.

My favourite introduction would be probably the 1997 one. It showed the beauties of the United Kingdom, the White Cliffs of Dover, the fields, the rivers, the cities. And of course Arthur. The 2019 one used Arthur so that was a plus but the intro video is so generic, being used for the 2015, 2017, 2019 elections. Why can't the BBC's budget update to another one? Also, the song was less enthusiastic and dramatic.

T uses the classic Arthur theme with an update to take it out of the 80s, with nice visuals that were admittedly getting a little stale by then. 2010, 2005 and 1983 are also personal favourites. Hoping this year to see new visuals with Arthur where it belongs.

The 1983 intro comes very close, but that version of the theme sounds very much The Who, either Who's Next or Tommy era. 1974 is fabulous though. Incredibly well-edited, edgy and artsy. The percussion is jazz, man! Hyping up the tension.

Not British at all, but do like introductions. Here's my favorites - Between 1945-1983 (Pre-CGI): 1974 (6:12) - smooth cinematography showing the different people and jobs on election night. Highly Commend 1964 (3:01) for trying to do that with the whole team behind the scenes walking around the floor, although it does look a bit silly to us nearly 60 years later. - Between 1987-2005 (CGI, Pre-HD): 2001 (11:57) - is the only one in these introductions which focuses on the issues facing the voting public. Critiques with media in Westminster based parliaments is that we focus so much on *who* will be prime minister (which the public don't vote on, the public vote on local members who are part of parties) rather than what the voting public are trying to achieve with their vote. I commend 1992 (9:53) for trying to update the 1974 introduction (shows the whole team not just the presenters), but I like 1974 more because this one seem to be media naval-gazing. 2010 onwards: I like none of these. 2019 (18:08) is ok I guess.

If you want to include the local elections and Alternative Vote referendum in 2011 and the EU membership referendum in 2016 in this collection, it's a bit weird that there's no mention of the EEC membership referendum in 1975, the devolution referenda in Scotland and Wales in 1979 and 1999, and the Scottish independence referendum in 2014, don't you think?

Love the use of Shostakovich in 1966. BBC staff milling around in the background walking aimlessly in 1964 was odd. IMHO 1974 has a lot going for it.

In February 1974 the theme and opening titles were different to October. The theme was Copland's Fanfare of the common man, and the opening can be seen here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pOCphKpqmsitg40.html

Yes in February and October. The election in February resulted in a hung parliament with a Lab Min gov which then collapsed so a snap election was held in October where Labour narrowly won a majority. I do believe different intros where used but I am not 100% sure. US election intro compilation would be good, personally I like MSNBC and CNN's intros the best.

Yes. For the Febraury election the BBC used Copland's Fanfare for the Common Man to introduce the results show. The Intro shown in this video was only used for the October election.

@@alcarbo8613 Same here in Brazil, nothing special as you said so. Every TV and radio station has a different music theme for any year like Globo and RedeTV! as an example, except Band which it uses the same theme since 1989 (which it is "of course" an stock music from an Valentino Production library album composed by Walter Murphy in 1983) and they never changed it or stop licensing the music because it is a classic, known until today by many brazilians as the "anthem of the democracy".
