As Rog747 would no doubt say "those were the days"
this may explain another thing that’s kept me awake for years! I think G-BTEB only appeared the first week and was the only one with red UK in the titles. Every other week it was G-BTEC or G-BTED presumably as the first week had shown ‘EB couldn’t make it that far! (Was 1989).
