Video content
[00:00:00] PROGRAMME: the final seconds of the late night Skiing Forecast.
[00:00:06] PROGRAMME GRAPHIC: standard BBC One template – for BBC News 24 simulcast.
The announcer promotes the overnight simulcast of BBC News 24 on BBC One – which starts in 20 minutes
[00:00:15] CLOCK: with a quick reminder of the overnight offerings on BBC Radio, it’s goodnight from BBC Two.
[00:00:40] IDENT: an announcerless playout of the Zapper BBC Two ident.
Our recording ends when the ident fades to black and silence.
Normally, after about 30 seconds of black and silence, GLITS/test tone would kick in.
GLITS/test tone would normally continue for about two minutes.
The overnight shutdown of the BBC Two transmitter network would then have been triggered.
