"Interstitial" is also used in biology to describe something between cells such as interstitial fluid. Interesting to see the same word in different contexts.
fun stuff.. I know that carbon in steel is also what we call interstitial. This basicly means that the carbon atoms that fit in between the quite large iron atoms. This runs up to a certain solubility limit and then you get Fe3C forming. Then steel becomes cast iron.
Also the word is used in solid state chemistry, when one or more atoms are centered in a cluster of metal atoms you can call them interstitials. Maybe the periodic videos guys can tell us something about it^^
The continuity/interstitials are the best bit... plenty on TH-cam! And of course, the regional ITV companies all had in-vision continuity announcers up to the mid-90's before they sadly went out of fashion. When's the book out? Sounds like a great read!
Very intersting. As an American, I'm unfamiliar with this usage. I've only ever heard "interstitial" (and it was pronounced to rhyme (roughly) with "eye full") in reference to organisms living in tidal pools, those areas between the land and sea, or occasionally to tiny organisms living between the grains of sand...
That was... surprisingly interesting. I haven't even thought about those things that much before. Definitely not about how they differ in different countries. I don't actually watch TV anymore so I don't know much about how it is now but I remember that we used to have those on-camera announcers when I was younger. Then it seemed to go more to the voice overs or even just plain text on the screen. I don't know what it's like now, maybe it's even gone to the American style.
I'm not sure if its considered the same but I thought the videos tv channels make which brand or represent a channel are called bumps. I find channel 4 ones the best. I can never figure out how they are done
@swedishgorilla1 It's not necessarily a shout out for you to buy anything; They may just want you to see this other program where there might be some juicy proper commercials (like a famous movie where they can charge a lot pr commercial), or if it is a non commercial channel, like SVT, it may be to keep you away from Viasat and such. Ever heard them telling you to stick to SVT1 and SVT2? You know "Folkhemmet" wants you to pay your TV-avgift. That song and movie is also a interstitial ;-)
interstitial of, forming, or occupying interstices : the interstitial space. • Ecology (of minute animals) living in the spaces between individual sand grains in the soil or aquatic sediments : the interstitial fauna of marine sands.
I watch DVDs, TH-cam etc. Not TV. Well, TV series, but they never get broad casted in my country anyway (or at least not in the original language) so I watch them on DVD where there are no interstitial. So no, I don't see them every day. :P
@blenderpanzi yeah same here. My new years resolution, and partners too, was to watch more tv, as all we EVER watch now is youtube, online shows, torrents. Its not going well for our tv's - youtube still has a monopoly; nay - a stranglehold, on my very soul! Thanks very much Brady and Catherine - great job, and always interesting!
@kcazzo69 If you want to see what life would be like with out any advertising, you just need to go to any stone age society. As soon as one person decides he's going to concentrate his skills on making, growing or doing one specific thing for a living, he's got to convince someone else to buy it or trade for it. The only way to do that is to announce to the world that you've got something to sell or trade. That's called advertising. Without it, we don't have the ability to live the way we live.

That's a very narrow and specific definition of this word

Because ads are where the bulk of their revenue comes from. In fact, most of the programming is there to attract you to the ads.
That was actually really interesting! The bit about the Doctor Who interruption reminded me of the "Inappropriate timing Spongebob banner" meme lol
Still waiting for blipverts. When are we going to get blipverts?

@kcazzo69 So would I, adverts are part of the reason why I stopped watching tv.

@swedishgorilla1 Sorry, I just took it for granted that you were Swedish. They are the national public non commercial channels. My bad ;-)

I've only ever hear interstitial when it is referring to the fluid between cells

What Vickyboy96 said, but id add that the british consistently say disorientated, while americans like myself say disoriented.

@canadafreakazoid ugh ytv with sugar when I was younger >.> .
Like carbon or nitrogen in steel solid solution in steel.
2:45, the word is, 'disorienting' not 'disorientating.'
