G-BOAD's EL panel replacement will just have to remain one of lifes little mysteries.
So the light show was filmed on 202 eh? They were trying out this bilge on the ground on OAB. (Never saw it myself, but that's what was being said in 2001/2002). Obviously the light show is a recent addition to the G-BBDG itinery. Thank goodness none of this nonsense found its way onto the operational fleet.
And Coffin Dodger.. I think that you've summed up the general view.... naff indeed.
