We did sell a few 1500 sets because we couldn’t get any other UK made large screen in the middle 70’s. Those sets had the Unitra CRT’s, not in my opinion the best but we had to use what was available. I didn’t repair a lot of 1500’s but what I did they were always straightforward.
From what I remember on previous threads Ferguson was probably the last British maker of large screen BW sets, but Portuguese made Pyes were made well into the 1980s.
