I'll include this one, from the early days of Channel 4, when the regional ITV companies sold the C4 airtime in their area, and thus inserted the adverts. It appears the first set of ads were on cartridge, but the last advert was on telecine, and the machine wouldn't start!
If a local ITV company didn't sell the airtime during a break, you saw the "part two or whatever, follows shortly" slide, and music, which explains the brief snatch of music we hear, during the black screen. This is clearly from TVS, as there's a Southampton local advert in this break.
