I'm a bit curious about the aspect ratio when BBC News 24 joined World Presentation. Did the News 24 channel automatically adjust the 16:9 ratio of News 24 to 4:3 (on the presentation side), or the recorder/you adjusted the aspect ratio manually to 4:3?
We used to shoot everything at a compromised 14:9 and it was put through a process called ARC (if I remember that name correctly) which would crop a little off the top and stretch it slightly. It was just before digital widescreen 16:9 became a standard and they were trying to get people used to things getting wider aspect.
@@sambaker2387 A controlled explosion means that you detonate it when you want and on your terms, if there's no safe method to remove it from situ then it's done where it's found. The IRA loved a booby-trap, basically any attempt to move the vehicle would've been too dangerous (remember the railway and houses run pretty close to TVC, so it's more preferable to detonate it near an empty building than near the Wood Lane estate, or the tube.
I feel awful for the people there... But did anyone else notice that Teletubbies was supposed to be on at the start of the video? EDIT: I was trying to point out how early in the morning this happened. I should have been more clear.
the start of the video shows footage from just before 3am, the blue info bar that appears when the user switches channels shows the current programme and the programme expected to follow - Teletubbies at 7am. the news simulcasts would go from early morning up to 7am at which point the channel's standard programming would begin
Yes it did. I don't think the RIRA gave a shit for the old bbc. It was well known that they were biased as hell and yes always talked a load of bollocks about the Irish. Warnings were given and well believe what you want. Rumour was it was detonated behind a fecking wall with a Nokia phone. Now 20 years later we are still stuck with the fecking bbc and they can kiss my whole hairy arse.
BBC News 24 having two breakfillers is the strangest thing that has happened in BBC's history.
Scary to think that this happened the same year 9/11 happened.
I'm guessing this was the start of the disagreement of paying the tv licence.
13:33 - LOL!!!!

description says it was all broadcasted like that

Didn't look very "controlled" to me ;)
It wasn’t, it blew up before they could control it.

@@michaelw9285 Or a guy behind a wall could have detonated it with an old Nokia phone. Just throwing that out there.
@@sambaker2387 for sure it was popped before the robot

A bomb by the IRA in the UK predicted 4 planes being flown at buildings 3000 miles away in America. Yup. How DID we miss that
This happened on my birthday
