4-Tel On View was a similar concept to Pages from Ceefax, providing Channel 4 with a selection of pages from 4-Tel, for broadcast before the day's programming began. It served as something of a substitute test card, with either a tone or music playing in the background. The pages were only broadcast on weekdays until C4 began breakfast-time broadcasting early in 1989. It ceased to be broadcast in January 1997, when Channel 4 began broadcasting 24 hours.

@gdtjuice Sorry I don't have any with tunes. I guess Channel 4 didn't want to pay copyright fees, because this was shown around 3am, where very few people would watch it !!!
