Crossroads cutting cleanly to black when it fell off air is a bit strange. I wonder if that was networked from ATV or if Thames were playing out a local copy? The apparently non sync cut from black to the slide is intriguing, you'd expect the slide scanner to be in sync with the pres mixer which would be in sync with the source of Crossroads. Possibly an artefact of the home recording we are seeing here.
For the cartoon to have a different fault is bad luck but I guess could be related if the fault was something like an SPG or genlock failing?
(BBC Two had a similar thing a few years ago with an OB programme falling off air and the standby Coast falling to play properly).

Write that down in your copybook now
