Summary: Promotional tape which opens with the Mobile News Team Logo, followed by a fast moving montage of footage. A voice-over describes the purpose of the MNT, and how it has followed and told the story of the soldier in Northern Ireland. The MNT's technology: video, digital transmission of photographs etc, and it's relationship to the media, who mix MNT material into news broadcasts. This is illustrated by three broadcast news items. (1) An Ulster TV item on the closure of North Howard Street Mill, including MNT interview footage of Major Charlie Stott and Major Cole-Mackintosh of the Black Watch. (2) ITV News at Ten item on the Canary Wharf bombing. (3) BBC(?) item on the redeployment of troops to Northern Ireland. [Fairly abrupt end.]
