Wonder was the clock still in the system?
That good ol' clock was generated by a box called a GNAT - Generator of Network Analogue Time.
the COW globe was generated by a very similar box
Originally yes. The COW globe that aired last night was not generated that way.
Pete's comment about the GNAT clock being recorded beforehand sounds right to me.
Thanks to theDamoirl for this.

Now I cannot un-see this. Curse you denton!
Still don't get it. What do you mean?
What you couldn't see (or at least didn't notice) is that Digit Al was being held in place by a hole-punch.

This is going off-topic again, but what did the English Regions do about that flash photography announcement into the Ten as their announcements are pre-recorded?

The stuffed toy model of Digit-Al (that annoying robot from the adverts) which was sitting atop the mechanical reflecting globe ident, was propped up by a thing that you use to punch holes in paper.

Does the Ten get announced regionally still? Can't say I've noticed as I'm usually watching on HD and don't remember to switch until I see the sports headlines.

Will check it later on desktop. I'm mainly using smartphone nowadays, so may be that's why I haven't noticed through its small-sized screen (compared to desktop monitors).

They still do it. Apart from London, I think. I didn't see the ident, but what they often do in these situations is just have a network announcement, if there's a non-standard intro. Sometimes here in the North West they still put up the local ident, but just use the network audio on these occasions.

I was tempted to say "How many non-annoying robots have you designed?" but this forum (unlike most nowadays) hasn't quite sunk to that level

I only ever designed one robot, and it now does my housework for me, drives me to work and is a thorough and gentle lover.
