I assume it's what they found out in practice a few years ago. You can't
fully synchronise too many combinations of:

- FM sound
- DAB sound
- Analogue TV sound
- DTTV sound

with

- Analogue TV vision
- DTTV vision

So TV and radio broadcasts of the Proms seem now to be deliberately well
separated to avoid complaints of poor synchronisation.

How interesting, yes of course. With the analgue TV and FM radio they
used to regularly so simultaneous broadcasts using the two together
but that is impossible now.

Even the "six pips" are late on DAB radio.
