BBC1

BBC breakdowns from 2002-2006 (mainly BBC1)

Not too many breakdowns from the Dancers' era online

BBC1 breakdown during Wallace and Gromit (incomplete)

I personally don’t think it matters as much with such old, low quality (technically) media. It’s more the latest stuff that gets uploaded and then immediately copied to YouTube.

BBC FOUR - Unusual Post-Closedown 'Fault'

Last night at 4am

Yes I think so, it's been a while (!) but I think GeeVS was used for breakdown slides (moving and static), other holding slides like the weather one we saw a few weeks ago after the Ten. End credit...

I was just flicking through channels this morning and when I got to channel4, t4 had absolutely no picture! It was just sound - and they didn't seem to do anything about it for over 10 minutes! It was quite funny that the presenters didn't mention...

BBC Weather Fault

The weather forcaster's mic wasn't working after the 5:20 (?) news today, so instead the sound was coming from another mic in the studio and, as usual when this happens, it was hard to hear him.

News at 10 (ITV) sound fault

Tonight's News at 10 was without sound for about a minute and a half before it finally came on, no apology or announcement was made. Strange that no-one else has mentioned it.

A major cock-up at the start of Question Time tonight. The balloon was as normal, We then cut to a VT Clock ticking down, and to black, as they do in the final few seconds, all still with balloon music.

BBC One HD now!

Fault
