- In 1995 the May Day bank holiday was moved to 8 May as it was the 50th anniversary of VE Day. Therefore, the first day of the summer term of schools programmes was moved to Friday 5 May. This is the first junction from that day preceding Geography - Start Here! (Programme 1, Cyprus, of the unit, Video Penpals.) at 9:30 AM. Broadcast 25 years ago today!
This is the first time the updated version of the clockwork dragon was broadcast with the new S4C logo featuring a 'flame' pictograph. The background was also changed to grey/mauve and light blue and the synchronisation of the music on the 'Next' version was changed to one beat behind the graphics - the balls now bounced on the clap, meaning they were now out of synch with the sound effects in the last cycle of the clock.
Hi Laurence! Great to see you again! Hope you’re keeping well under such extraordinary circumstances!
So, first term with the then new Ess Pedwar Ec logo, eh?
Hi Andrew, sorry for delay in reply!! I'm just about staying sane - cabin fever's still at bay!! Just!! Aye, the very first day!! I saw it change on TV during the Easter holidays and got excited, knowing there would be a new version of the graphics!!
@Morse it was April 1995 and the new S4C logo on the schools graphics was introduced at the beginning of the summer term 1995. Along with a mauve tint to the background and a different timing with the balls between the Next and Nesa versions.
@Morse I do indeed! It will take time to upload it! The SCART socket on my old VHS is playing up, which is a pain! Makes it very difficult to digitize it without a buzzing noise! Why did we not have MP4s 26 years ago!?!? It would have made things so much easier and saved a lot of space!!
@Morse I'll get on with it in my own time. I'm busy and I've got other things to do.
@Morse unfortunately so!
Channel Four/S4C aired the Bill Cosby You Bet Your Life in the UK (a few years after it was one season and done in 1992-93)?!
