If you see a messy splat on a handover on a YouTube video that's a limitation of the technology where the VCR has effectively freaked out for three seconds trying to figure out what the frig's just happened and what to resync to, but of course the tape doesn't stop in the meantime...
On your telly in real time? You probably wouldn't have noticed much if anything.
I'm old enough to remember the analogue splats between Central/GMTV live, and they were still significant well into the 90s on our TV - granted not the picture-rolling mess on VHS but you could hear the tube whine change and see the picture jump.
