[williamg209]

I WANT NEWS!!!! NOT SOME PICTURE!!!!!!

[jazzyjack90]

I'll stay up and see if it does!!!!

[quizman1967]

We apologise for the loss of music. Meanwhile, here are some programmes!

I wish that had happened sometime!

[jazzyjack90]

i love this music!!! it reminds me of when i was younger and i used to wake up at 4 on christmas day. i put the telly on and there was ceefax with this music!!

[deepfriedgames2009]

who would have thought bbc2 would have had a technical fault on xmas day!

[TheRyanslions]

@deepfriedgames2009 its a Christmas present from Satan

[TeamBlackDragons01]

Brill Christmas music for Ceefax is it in full anywhere?

[mattfox14]

Merry xmas everyone for 2006

[argyess]

I really like the Ceefax music, very warm and festive. At least the music didn't break down!! Does anyone know the title of this piece by any chance?

[shirleygibson]

Well BBC TWO Idents Came In November 2001, Into These Films "The Land Before Time II: The Great Valley Adventure" And The Ident Was Wave Day.

[adamlukey]

[greenscreenn00bster]

LOL we are sorry for this break in programming, and we are trying to keep you awake until 6 to show you programming.

[Ackworth97]

Munju Marli?

[EminorFunkyBannana]

i swear this is fake!

[jazzyjack90]

@EminorFunkyBannana it definitely happened, I saw it!!!!

[gpo746]

having their xmas party some pissed tit presses the wrong button ...either that or they just fucked off home ....mabey the one guy left in charge went for a crap and couldnt make it back intime to start ceefax properly.

[dwarfer777]

i bet there isnt one person in the news room who wishes you a merry xmas, they're all like "yeh wotever",. lol, "bbc2 and everyone here" - yeh your butt!

[LessonNumber1]

stupid zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[F1FANjim]

htf can they have a problem with ceefax lmao.

[racrmimbpsvc]

How can you put the fault caption on during ceefax????? It doesent make sense!!!!!

[hornauerzuwinnende]

Maybe the ceefax decoder broke or the vision mixer was configured the wrong way. There are lots of ways one can mess up something like that.

Plus at that time, they probably were a bit short on staff.

[jaychristie909]

Ceefax have really improved their graphics :P

[pinkelephants12]

ha lol

sorry for this break in "Ceefax".

id rather look at the "2" than ceefax

[TwoPlusTwoMakesFour]

lmao

[pdedecker]

That BBC Two ident reminds me an awful lot of ITV1's Moths ident...

[davecheesefish]

Ha ha ha! "We are sorry for the break in this programme"?! wtf? The whole point of closing down is that there ARE no programs anyway!

[daanbrg]

Haha, very true! Stupid that they only have 1 'fault slide'... not very professional in my opinion. At least they could have pronounced it through audio, right?

[Goldie267]

Yea like they've done before

[Slay33D]

I bet the engineer kicked something on the way out and got called back by an enraged boss.

[Secondsnow]

thats cefax lol

[cwucwucwucwu]

who liker braniac

[cwucwucwucwu]

bbc 2 do not close any more

[tvmercia]

bbc two do close. they usually use bbc news 24, however if bbc one are already showing n24, they goto ceefax

[plane717]

it was a problem

[Rmg12]

Why was the metropolitan cathedral in Liverpool on?

[tvmercia]

the live midnight mass was on bbc one earlier in the evening - presumably a still left on the feed

[JGHGFF]

i thought they joined bbc news 24

[theheaddoctor]

No, BBC 1 joins News 24. BBC 2 has Ceefax as their nighscreen

[timonline2000]

Wow, so recent!
