More models that probably know what to do with

Although I suppose if you couldn't tell it was a model and it looks like it was CGI, then that's a good thing. I guess?
Not uncommon though for a lot of presentation even into IIRC the 2000s, and if it could have been a model it probably was.

In 1986 it certainly wouldnt have been CG, even today it's often easier just to make and film something than create it totally on a computer

I suppose there are some things that just work better as models. CG makes a lot of stuff look quite flat, especially when its done on a budget.

So that “Showbiz UK” programme that the clip of Andi Peters burning his lips on a plasma screen comes from, was a Granada Talk TV programme! Wasn’t he an LWT executive or head of department at that time? Presenting The Noise? Not sure why he’d want to be presenting on a little watched cable channel.

Think I spotted Matt Allwright on the Granada Talk TV video posted.

In charge of music and youth programming, apparently.

I didn't think he'd had done much in that role besides The Noise (IIRC, that did spawn off a couple of one-off teatime specials after it finished) but he also produced An Audience with the Spice Girls and Train 2 Win, CITV's Gladiators spin-off.

Then, he was off to Channel 4 to launch T4 (around the same he was also presenting The Weekend Show for LWT on Friday evenings)

Largely produced in the 10th floor studio, possibly the most productive/cost effective studio of them all in terms of television hours produced.
