Just found this on Wiki

In Town Tonight - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

or maybe this is better

In Town Tonight
Intro was followed by the voice of a newspaper seller calling out "In town tonight," as traffic circled the statue of Eros in central London. Remember Hobley interviewing Robert Mitchum when he was passing through during the filming of Ryan's Daughter which was set in Ireland. The author J.B. Priestley was on the same program. 'In Town Tonight' and 'War in the Air' were very popular programs at the time. Recall seeing film footage of Belson and Austwich which scared the pooh out of me as a gullible teenager.
