On C4 there was no special annoucement prior. But a small aknowledgement afterwards

Yeah. And they tell stories

I think Channel 5 was the only broadcaster to not acknowledge the film in the following junction, all of the other channels mentioned it somewhat.

I assume something from C5 was included but didn't spot it to be honest compared to the obvious BBC/ITV/C4 references.

I was watching BBC One Scotland where we got a version with the STV logo at the end in place of ITV. A nice touch from BBC Scotland.

This obviously went out on STV too.

I saw Cruising with Jane McDonald, The Yorkshire Vet and 5 News, don't know if there were any others.

EDIT: Also Cold Call and that Tony Robinson clip might have been from one of his C5 docs.

Except for viewers in the English regions, who are having their content cut and will be less well represented as a result?

Random but is this available to rewatch at all? I have a feeling this might be something only available on sites like YouTube, not really stuff like iPlayer

edit: YT video is above, my curiosity about potential for iPlayer still stands

That was truly something.


Well it was definitely ... something. Something nice but a bit meh!

I'm wondering how many viewers on all the channels that showed this mini-film thought either, "What was that all about?", "What was the point of that?" ... and other similar viewpoints.

I imagine it will be repeated irregularly at random intervals on the various PSB owned TV channels.
