Six O'Clock News - Lesbians Protest Section 28

There's a couple other clips out there of this same incident, but this has the gallery talkback intact. I don't want to take credit for sourcing this though - I'm really sorry but I have no idea who/where this is from, so feel free to step forward if this originates with you!

So "animate charisma" is what they're calling it nowadays?

@doubledeckers Just to add to what others have said, it was actually standard BBC practice at the time - and may even still be, I don't know - to record the gallery talkback as well as the transmitted audio output when recording live news bulletins. This was partly so that if controversial editorial decisions were made by the director or editor while the bulletin was on air, they could be reviewed by management by listening to what was actually said in the gallery at the time.

If I ever find myself in a tricky situation at work, I simply animate charisma

@floydianworld What you see after the countdown clock was broadcast over the air and some of the sound you hear. Other parts of the sound and the countdown clock weren't broadcast.

@cheesyfeet1976 And you want to get rid of gays and lesbians just because they have a different opinion from you, yet you call them Nazis?

Look who's the Nazi now . . .

@SimonDolan Nah....Its never pointless to take direct action against Tory cunts.

@keithc1977 LOL hilarious. She was a total bitch to Vivienne Westwood on live T.V, always disliked her after that.
