Рет қаралды 24,580
Күн бұрынThis a digital re-creation of part of the Emley Moor, ABC TV weekend television start up, for the North of England from the mid-1960s. It was radiated at the start of weekend transmissions on a Saturday and Sunday morning, on the monochrome 405 line TV system on channel B 10. It was also broadcast with a different transmitter location caption for the North-West of England on Channel B9 from the ITA transmitter at Winter Hill and for the Midlands from the ITA Transmitter at Lichfield on channel B 8. ABC was a trully great TV station, which later merged with Rediffusion in London to become Thames TV in 1968.

Thames Television used the same start-up music from 1968 to the early 1980s.

Yes,as they were a shotgun marriage of ABC and Redifusion,this tune was the first tune of the Thames start-up,and then the Salute To Thames piece was played over the Thames logo,the opening notes were heard at the start of a Thames produced programme.

Perpetuum Mobile was heard over the tuning signal on ABC whereas the second half of the start up tune had a showbiz tune.

I am sure that Thames Television used the same start up tune as the one heard in this clip

The original start up sequence for ABC Television has never been shown.From 1955/6 when ITV started in the north a test card was shown followed by the original ABC triangle (the same as used in the cinemas) which radiated for until programmes started.

"Perpetuum Mobile", by Mike Roberts. A pretty ropey string orchestra if I ever heard one!

Didn't the Penguin Cafe Orchestra also cover the tune?
