ITV's new teletext service took over from ORACLE at the stroke of midnight on 01-Jan-1993.
But were they quite as prepared as they would have liked?

The header's right, but this is a page template I guess we should not have seen! |
 |
But here, the header row is unusual! |
 |
Er, hello? |
 |
Of course, there was very little that was new about having a regional teletext service. ORACLE had already been doing it for some time! |
 |
They were so switched on that they were only using half of this page! |
 |
Very surreal!
This is a test page - please ignore. Thanks - Mike. |

Like the other frames on this page, this one was decoded from an S-VHS tape. The decoding of sub-page 1 was only partially successful so this reconstruction may not be 100% accurate, but it is included here for its interest value. |

(National stream 2, page 80, sub-page 1) |

And here are the index pages for the After Hours service, in all their "glory"! |
