Complete recording from transponder opening, content starts at 1:18 ---- 17 April 2000 From the crashing on air to the inevitable audio and video errors this is the first 30 minutes of transmission for Ideal World shopping TV from Peterborough. First item for sale was a car! (Don't think they ever did sell it, did they?) Paul Lavers in charge. This is exactly what went to air complete with snow on screen and no sound, as you will see the technical quality was amateur tv at its best (worst). A female presenter is seen crawling on the floor holding a microphone boom later in the show! Later on the complex caught fire and they became Portacabin TV until the whole thing was rebuilt with insurance money. "Get the strength of the insurance companies about you".
