Great find, thanks for sharing :) Regardless of the standing of the likes of Border and Channel, you really feel the genuine 'community' feel, more so in Channel's case arguably.

Don't think I've ever seen a Channel closedown before. Their "footage of the Queen visiting the region" film was what HTV used to do as well.

I like the formal style of Channel's continuity, pleasant, not authoritarian or in-your-face.

When it went to static at the end, was that because the tape ended or was that Channel Television turning off the transmitter?

They just switched the transmitter off rather than the usual practice of fading in a testcard and test-tone then switching off the vision carrier with a unstable jumpy black screen and finally switching off the transmitter resulting in snow.

Yea, this stuff is older than me by a long way 😂 Why were they so bothered about making sure to unplug your box at the wall?

There was no ‘stand by’ mode on electronic devices then so either tv was on or off. If left on overnight and unattended it could overheat, especially if it had been on all evening and start a fire.

Fremont Point was soon shut down!
Why no testcard
Not UK
