The Anonymous Widower

It’s Thirty Years Of Breakfast TV Today

I can remember, when it started and watched the first program. Probably in my attic at The house in Debach, where I was writing Artemis.

I can also remember ;listening to the opening of LBC, the London news station in the flat in the Barbican.

But some things never change.  They showed what was about in 1983 and one was the InterCity 225‘s running out of Kings Cross. Although, they didn’t start running until 1988.  So either I got the identification wrong or the BBC used a wrong clip.

  1. Your comment on “Artemis around 1983”, a bast from the past.
    1979 IBM Projacs on a Mainframe, with Graphics plotted on another Program.

    Your comment “But some things never change” : Yes, BUT also “some things change forever” . . . your Artemis {circa 1980} is up with the Best of British: Ideas, Inventions & Inovations . . . I would bet on BBC using the wrong clip . . .

  3. I got some of the Artemis ideas from IBM 360/CSMP, which I used about 1970.

    They didn’t repeat the clip but it could have been the other earlier class of train. They’re still running as well.
