D for DRUNK

@JohnTheRails Thanks John, made my day finding that - cheers!
-
@23565120 Try 'robinse28' and look for 'Fury Part 2'. These are the third and fourth pieces in the clip.
-
I wish the first piece was complete, as it was one of my favourites. Ah well ! half a tune is better than no tune at all. (Er, I wish I hadn't said that - I think.)
-
@JFredUK I'd sooner watch this than watch some of the celebrity crap which is aimed at us from all directions these days.
-
Better than the Alan sodding Titchmarsh Show.

@Feisty1967 I couldn't agree with you more. Ironically, when there was, 'nothing on', years ago, it was something that you could watch, Whereas, nowadays, there's, 'something on', but it's something you don't want to watch! Bring back the test card, and give us our sanity back! Who wants to watch endless editions of repetitive shows which, basically, just fill in the air-time during the day? Oh, and give us some of those wonderful tunes that used to be on with the test card, too!

The testcards are a damn sight more interesting than the constant stream of shite and drivel delivered by daytime tv these days. Namely, Loose Women, The Alan Titchmarsh Show, Dickinson's Real Deal and Coach Trip. The endless stream of boring boybands and "showbiz" people talking about West-End shows that I'll never get to see bores me to death. I'm female btw.

@rambo1152 Hi would you know of someone who has a Sony cv 2000 for sale please? thank you
Do you still have the CV2000? It was the first VTR I ever got to play with, I repaired it for somebody. I think I replaced the static discharge brush on the drum.
Its nice to see something genuine on youtube, a lot of the testcard footage is faked and not always acknowledged as such.
Your video clearly shows a 50Hz hum-bar skewing the verticals and changing the brightness. People actually watched wobbly pictures like that and thought nothing of it.

It isn't mine, this comes from a VHS copy. Would love to find one and get it going. I'd have to find a 405line telly too though.
