Somebody in the comments suggests the machine playing the adverts keeled over and died. Not sure if Central were using cart machines for adverts as late as 1991 or something else, or whether a cart machine was just to play Channel 4 adverts.
The "Let's Get Together" audio theme was used until the end of 1992, not just in Breakdowns but the odd bit of promo/continuity next/later junctions, but not on Idents.
