Probably just served to alienate the viewers ever further on top of all the other changes (and being thrown around the schedule) in the last couple of years.
I'm in Scotland right now (in fact, a stone's throw from STV's headquarters...) and just seen a trailer on STV and noticed the clips in it are 50i- a shame we aren't able to actually see it that way though the streaming.
A good couple of examples of the "fake" music the show used in these early episodes, at least they're actual songs rather than iffy musak, so far anyway. I admit I never noticed the non-use of licenced music at the time I was watching in the mid-late 90s, but it will probably stick out now I know about it, especially after watching 80s/90s repeats of other soaps which made heavy use of it.
