World of Sport (UK TV programme) Greaves, featuring football news, action and live chat was introduced by ITV on Saturday lunchtimes from 1985 to replace the "On The Ball" segment of "World of Sport", enjoying a successful run that ended in 1992 when Sky Sports gained exclusive rights to broadcast English top-flight football. From 1985, "Wrestling" with Kent Walton would follow immediately after "Saint & Greavsie", before being dropped in December 1988, only shortly prior to the popularity of the US World Wrestling Federation promotion (now World Wrestling Entertainment) gaining momentum in the UK in that era via coverage on Sky Television plc from early 1989.
Prelude for Orchestra (Walton) Prelude for Orchestra (Walton) William Walton received a commission for an original composition from Granada Television in June 1961. Walton delivered the work in August 1962 as "Granada Prelude, Call Signs and End Music". The music was never used by Granada. Granada turned the piece over to Gilbert Vinter to convert the prelude into a march for symphonic wind band. In Vinter’s arrangement it was recorded and transmitted at the beginning of each day’s broadcast from 1965 until September 1973. The work features stretches of piano or pianissimo scoring allowing announcements to be superimposed. Walton also includes a "big tune"
