Thank you for this of course. This is rather like the BBC2 tests that they ran then in the Autumn of 1987, that of course were before these ones then later on BBC1 at the time so too. Well done!
Which of course too were also shown late at night after closedown so too. Oddly, they were not listed in the Radio Times, TV Times if it was 1991, the papers or elsewhere then so too. And nor did the announcer mention them either really?
They could have used the Pulse and Bar Test card (RBR LInk ?) to distinguish between the feeds, a flick of a switch must have bought the engineering test on line and when they were satisfied they switched back to the test card before the transmitters were closed for the night
I noticed the encryption during the test and the phase shift in the images. Would these tests have been about the time that BBC Select launched? The encryption looks very similar to what their transmissions used.
@@GoodkingMemorex There's a recording of this on the MHP Private Parts dated the 17th April 1991. Though it's not QUITE the same as this one- as that recording's lacking the timecode, TCF and the picture with what looks like an Atom are swapped around in order, and they run the golf clip both sides of the Antiques Roadshow clip (then the recording ends, so they may have been running the two clips on a loop)- so they clearly had different variations of this test that they ran at different times.

It was probably December 1991 (the month the clock sizes were changed).
13:11 Better, now just needs a little adjustment. Horizontal hold, I believe.
7:11 Psychedelic, man!

Yes, more or less about the same time. My logs say this was about 1991

The scrambled test card looks odd
That doll gives me the creeps.
The doll on the Antiques Roadshow clip (6:14) gives ME the creeps!
