If it wasn't for BBC2 there would probably have been no "Tonight in Person" programmes like the hour-long one featuring Peter, Paul and Mary that has probably had more views of its YouTube incarnation than it had for its original airing.

I have a Schneider 625 line VHF/UHF colour TV inherited from a relative who lived in France, that works with SECAM, European PAL, and UK PAL. I assume the UK PAL capability was for the benefit of those in range of the Channel Islands transmitters.
