You can't ever complain about digital television when you suffered that awful ghosting on analogue. It looks like Thames were broadcasting two clocks. Unless it was an atmospheric thing and it was obtained from outside of London.
I think that’s audio bleed-through from when the tape has been rolled up on its reel. The magnetic field from one part of the tape can slightly magnetise the parts of tape immediately adjacent to it when rolled up.

Watched this before I go to bed.
Nice you mention the TV Live Forum, as someone's given you a shout-out there... 😏
I hope it’s complimentary 🙂

so is THAT why the picture quality's shite on this?
@@barbaraannecortina7899 Either that or it was atmospheric conditions that took the signal out of London and was recorded from three.
8:08 For those with headphones, there's a very quiet tone for 3-4 seconds before the actual loud tone appeared, due to magnetic pre-echo.
i can also hear it at 9:30 and at 9:43
It rained until September... and then the summer started.
I like the restful closedown music
When one friendly reminder to switch off the set isn't enough, why not try 3 (including 2 muffled ones).
