Then came the process of switching over the telecoms system and production machinery in time for work on Sunday morning. Add a terrific storm and a raft of valuable equipment and who knew what would happen when they started production?
The Bournemouth Echo celebrated its Golden Jubilee in s, a prosperous newspaper revelling in post-war glory. Anyone familiar with Richmond Hill will appreciate the logistical challenge for the Echo especially with the advent of delivery vehicles to distribute the newspapers.
Not only does the office sit near the foot of a steady slope down to the Square, but it is nestled in the loop of a one way traffic system. So to negotiate the collection, the vans would need to head down the Hill, take a left down Albert Road, make a yard detour round the block and head up parallel one-way Yelverton Road before making the back up the hill.
The Echo bought the neighbouring New Royal Theatre building and demolished it. This made room for an internal ramp, which would let vehicles load up from the dispatch department on Albert Road, pass through the building and escape via Yelverton Road.
The expanding staff needed breakout rooms, new offices, process and jobbing departments, so the whole building was reinforced with waterproof concrete walls suitable for housing a steel framework that would bear the load. Tuesday 25 November saw the Bournemouth Evening Echo as it was now called, officially enter the digital age.
Although the change from the old-fashioned hot-metal to cold, computer-set production had been going on for a while especially on pages like the TV listings and features, which were prepared more slowly and in advance this date marked the switch-over for the hot-off-the-press front and back pages, completing the move to a new electronic process. While the purpose of this part of the building has changed, it has preserved those striking Art Deco embellishments and the room now enjoys the same level of bustle from back in the days of the heavy printing presses.
The mainstay of the newspaper is its mix of local and national news. Faithful to its original remit back in the Bournemouth Echo also reports on the national headlines and weather, rounding up the headlines for Britain and around the world.
Reporters now update the news as it happens, around the clock. Tragically, just 1 in 5 pets are ever returned to their owner. Because punishments are often related to the monetary value of a pet, they usually result in trivial fines rather than imprisonment. Although the Theft Act of allows a maximum penalty of up to seven years, this never seems to happen. The majority of prison sentences awarded are less than six months. This Act is over 50 years old and may need amendment.
The newspaper is still printed today, with new issues published Monday through Saturday. The newspaper is known locally as the Daily Echo and the Bournemouth Echo.
