I'm guessing just one of those coincidences of library music?

Like the one at the very end of the UK Gold video

Weekend 24 from October 1998, but that bed under the Coming Up sequence sounds very familiar

Yep, it's the UK Gold ident used until the end of October 1997

I'm guessing just one of those coincidences of library music?

And here's the track – Fusion, by Simon Stirling and Paula Riordan from the Music House library:

Given that is production music and that the N24 era composers Kim Goody, Alan Coates & Dave Hewson (I believe) were known names to pop up in production music circles. Here is a question: Was the sound of 1997-1999 essentially a mix of the main core "station sound" and various miscellaneous library tracks filling out the rest of what was needed? Sorry to be a pain and ask.

Finally my video resource is back! Woo hoo!
Goodbye YouTube welcome back TV Ark fully.

Back to a point I've wanted to make for a few weeks.

A question I've always wanted to know. We all know how the original 1995-2003 break filler on BBC World worked with laserdiscs and computers and Ceefax but how did this one work? What were the mechanics behind it?

I can't see why it couldn't be a similar setup to the previous version - the video could be an overlay as well.

The output from the video player fed into the graphics system, and text on a transparent background layed on top.

Otherwise, It could be fully CG this time?

Not quite pres related, but I do sorta miss when newsreaders would do something for Children In Need.

That changed in 2013, with the closure of BBC Television Centre, the newsreaders moved to BBC Broadcasting House and Children in Need moved to BBC Elstree Studios - back before 2013, it was easy for them, as BBC News Centre was at BBC Television Centre.

You know they don’t live in the newsroom right?

Listen, dont be a smart arse - reason being was that BBC News Centre at BBC Television Centre was handy to get newsreaders on duty that week and then that night to pop down the corridor to Studio TC1 was easier than getting them to travel from central London to Elstree - that is the reason given by the BBC for dropping the newsreaders

You wouldn’t have known it was Children in Need at Broadcasting House on Friday. There was absolutely nothing at all. TVC on CIN night was a very exciting place to work indeed and there was a real buzz about the place, as there was at regional sites when regional output was a core part of the programme. Quite sad to be honest.
