Since AP was the home of BBC News, why should this have happened. Much
more likely is that someone made "an Entertainment Tape" as a "spoof".

You can see it for yourself here. If it's a spoof then the BBC has
presented it in a rather misleading manner.

(The video - in nasty "RealVideo" format - purports to be a recording
exactly as broadcast, although I don't think they had work experience
juniors blindly cropping things to 14:9 back in 1964 so that
particular aspect of the presentation must be discounted.)

Yes, that's the recording. The DVD is in 4:3 so yes, that particular aspect
of the presentation can be discounted.


That isn't the film I saw - the film even has sound! And it wasn't a
telerecording either.

It was shot at Alexandra Palace that night and is a fairly long shot
which makes the whole thing look even more haphazard. Until now, I
didn't realise that I'd heard part of the bulletin that wasn't
broadcast!

It was part of a much longer film shown in the Alexandra Palace studio
at the exhibition to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the opening of
the Television Service last November.

Perhaps it is available on the APTS website somewhere?
