This was a 'programme' that Ed & I made in the late 60s. It was just after the installation of the vidicon ident cameras in the cubicle, and everyone discovered that they would work (sort of) as real cameras. Several offerings were made, as well as some more shots taken in 1970 when an Ampex VR3000 backpack and camera 'passed through' VT. There is also a bit of Alan Edgingtons 8mm movie of VT. Apologies for the quality but this material IS multi-multi-generation and format. But browse through the page and return to those halcyon days of Shift 1 and Shift 2. Video available where indicated.
