Transdiffusion… (Hastings and St Leonards Observer, Saturday 16 October 1954)

Mike Waghorne… Remember them running cables from house to house in the late 50’s early 60’s. .

Time Moose Bruce… I remember TV programs interrupted by ” This is a Rediffusion announcement.” Usually an apology for poor TV reception. Sometimes an announcement my local police searching for missing person or child.

Jim Hobbs… Cable TV before we knew that was a thing.

Linda Gowans… Brown Bakelite sets with a switch for Home Service, Light Programme or the Third Programme.

Nigel Ford… is all that cable still in the ground? Very valuable copper, I expect. The inspection covers are still up Harold Road.
