Computer kaput!



So no pictures, except for this one.
Which may need an explanation for my friendly Canadian reader Katrina.
This is test card F used by the BBC and ITV in the late 1960s as a pattern broadcast when the transmitter is active but no program is being broadcast.It shows a colour photo of Carole Hersee playing noughts and crosses with a doll. It was used for callibration, alignment and matching cameras and camcorders.. The x marks the approximate centre of the card.
