Currently showing Testcard G

The catalogue seems to have been offline a while now.

But you are right this isn't Test Card G - that's just what the BBC called it - it is, in fact, a modified version of the Philips PM5544. Test Card G proper looked a bit like Test Card C.

Yeah, I've found it quite useful for dating old recordings, it's been a real pain with it being down!

This experimental prototype trial has now concluded.

Thank you for your continued interest in the BBC Programme Catalogue. The BBC is now looking into how this data can be incorporated into its programme information pages.

"Incorporated into our programme information pages"?
