Nice announcement from Duncan into Dad’s Army saying when this classic episode of Dad’s Army was first shown on BBC One, it’s the U-boat one, and it’s the first time Dad’s Army has been on BBC One since 2004!

Does the playout chain for BBC One still include the correct WSS flags, I wonder, or does everyone just get it in 12P16?
I don't think Line 23 signalling has been used internally since HD became the master network (as Line 23 is 625/50 specific so not relevant for an HD up conversion) - but AFDs are still in use I think. (It may be inserted at the HD->SD downconversion stage to trigger the DSat 12F12 ARCs for 4:3 shows)
(SD network shows have round tripped SD->HD->SD by the time they reach SD viewers)
BBC Four aired a new black and white show, Jazz 625, last year which was repeated on Friday, the first they claim since the 70s. It was in widescreen though and just looked really odd.

I saw it last year, it was a near live OB from the Cheltenham Jazz Festival. I thought the b/w 16:9 HD pictures looked really classy. Nice 👌
