Where it comes from
From a newsreader's standard introduction to such pieces, which typically come at the end of a news bulletin.
noun and finallies
- A light news story reserved for the end of a bulletin when there is a lack of more important items; typically involving animals or other features supposed to be amusing. All this was broadcast on the evening of 23 February 1956, and it's the earliest surviving example of an Independent Television News bulletin. Even then, there was an ‘And finally...’ item, but on this occasion it was merely the good news that a thaw was on the way.
