Has to be the TV22 just from the number of survivors, albeit that's been assisted by its visual charms. As another compact set toward the affordable end of things which to me seems easily the second most prevalent model of those available pre-Coronation, if I were a gambling man I'd back the Pye B18T as having had the second largest number of eyeballs facing it that day.
