[00:00:00] IDENT: the special ’60 Years’-branded version of the BBC One globe.
[00:00:03] PROGRAMME MENU GRAPHIC: previewing afternoon programmes on BBC One.
The announcer’s verbal preview of the menu has been edited out of our original tape recording.
We jump to a full playout of The Television March by Eric Coates.
[00:03:43] IDENT: a quick link into the interlude film via the globe symbol.
We can hear an audible clunk near the start of the link, which is the announcer cuing the interlude tape – possibly on a u-matic machine.
[00:03:58] PROGRAMME: The Windmill interlude film, from the early 1950s.
Colour burst is removed for the duration of the interlude film.
