This was in 1992 in the final weeks of both Thames and TVS.
Power cut at Euston, or something went wrong preparing for Carlton? (Unlikely as the latter shared LWT's established facilities)
Damn, Playbox, we had an episode of that on video for years taped off the TV (on a tape that also had an episode of Pigeon Street)! Didn't realise it was still being shown as late as 1992! Our recording was probably from the original airing as it had the animated Central endcap they were using in 1988/89. Suprised when I found out Keith Chegwin was one of the voices!
Then it got taped over by an episode of "Take 5" that Channel 4 were running in the early 90s, which was made up of 5 different old kids TV shows like Ivor The Engine and Captain Pugwash. The last 15 seconds or so of the Playbox episode is still on the tape though- taped over by some quite dull Channel 4 documentry from 2000.
