    It seems odd to close down at that sort of time when surely TV-am then would not be far off would it? Whatever, well done for the upload!

    Was this music ever available to buy on a compilation, etc? I'd love this on vinyl! The chilled flute bit is my favourite!

      Don’t think it was.
      Originally it was paired with the Granada startup theme. Both were introduced in 1975 but the startup theme was dropped in 1983 once they started switching straight from TV-AM around May that year.

    Even if it's 0457 in the morning they decided the music was necessary. Well, if it's their trademark, suuuuure!
    (I honestly love their music they chose for the closedown)
    Btw as the Granada logo doesn't appear full screen until 0438 and 30 seconds it's true the colour bars with the GRANADA NCR (what does NCR mean?) appears seconds within the 5 o'clock mark.
    Sure it's not that useful to go off the air for an hour but they could have left a schedule or treated that as an afternoon closedown as they would have returned on the air at 0555 (not even an hour later) because TV-am.
    But this time the colour bars appear within 20 seconds of the "Switch off you set" verbal warning rather than a minute or so.
    But I honestly love late closedowns (Rai in Italy did closedown at 1am in the 80s then they moved that closedown at 0330 or 0400).

      The closedown music is a spin-off of the excellent music they used at startup from 1975 to 1983.

      All the ITV stations before the mid-80s used startup music.

      @Mirko Mazzoni "NCR" stood for Network Control Room, basically the transmission and broadcasting area of Granada TV, at Quay Street, Manchester.

    I wonder why they kept the colour bars, from the Network Control Room (which is what NCR stands for), for less than one minute?

    • @stickytapenrust6869
      @stickytapenrust6869  5 місяців тому

      They didn’t. Granada kept their colour bars fed to the transmitter. It was the IBA that shut the transmitter down as it was their transmitter.

      @@ClydebridgeStation Until the rollout of NICAM in the early 90s, ITV vision and sound were carried on separate circuits, so it was possible to cut vision (including sync pulses) and sound to the transmitters separately.
      The BBC had had the vision and sound carried together on the same cable circuits since they rolled out Sound-in-Syncs (SiS) in 1970. So normally sound gets cut at the same time as vision and sync pulses with them.
