A 10-minute extended version of the BBC News Theme, which includes the countdown, opens, closes, and idents, using as much audio as possible that can be found on BBC News/BBC World News.
This is an updated version of the 2022 one I made which includes more tracks. The full list is below. I had this shelved for a while because I wanted to make a special video for it, but I don't really have much time to do that. BBC News is also expected to undergo further rebranding, which may include the audio identity / sonic branding, which is partly why I shelved it. However, I was a bit unhappy with the first one and I felt that this was a lot better in terms of the mix and quality of sources, and that's the main reason I put this out now.

4:29 2013 BBC News Channel filler
(For the filler and the countdown, I've used new sources that get rid of the sound effects. Sorry if you liked them, but they were too distracting.)
5:36 2013 BBC News Channel / BBC World News 90 second countdown
(NC on the left, World on the right. I accidentally added a new beat change between the filler and the countdown. 2023 is the last year that you will hear the World News special identity, as the merger between News Channel and World News has happened.)
