Was trying to find a clip on TV Ark but even the 14:9 clips are from that bizarre era where they put 14:9 black bars on top of the 4:3 picture just to make it *look* like it was in widescreen, complete with a split second at the start every night before they appear, revealing the ruse.
The MOSI in Manchester actually had the actual piece of equipment that added those bars on display at one point (maybe they still do, it was 2015 when I saw it) amongst a bunch of old equipment from Oxford Road.
