Some of it appears at the start of this, from the OnDigital launch day, complete with a little tour of the DTA...
All this talk of BBC digital promos reminds me just how many campaigns there were in that first decade. There was the famous 'scary' floating heads one, then an equally troubling series of ads involving people tearing off thier own faces to reveal BBC stars underneath, plus one involving puppet monkeys which in no way had any connection to the ITV Digital monkey. Apparently. Sure there were plenty of others in those early years, too.

I remember very clearly a promo for BBC Digital featuring a lot of 0s and 1s, narrated (I think) by Richard Wilson and Angus Deayton which actually managed to make the whole thing sound a million times complicated than it was. Can't seem to find it online anywhere even though it was played at practically every junction.
