Granada's TV Rental Stuff

[Inspector Sands]

It only had 4 push-button channels on it though, which meant when Channel 4 came along, we had to watch that through the video.

My grandad had a Baird TV with only 4 preset buttons, I think we tuned it into Channel 4 for him but I doubt he ever watched it and never had a video. 

Very unusual and not very useful in the 80s. But mind you the next step was putting too many presets, I remember seeing sets in the 90s and 2000s still boasting '100 channel memory' when there's no way in the UK that they would ever be used even if connected to cable
