Default Science museum visit.

Hi, just returned from a 2 day visit to London. My first stop was a visit to the Science museum. On show was a 25 inch BRC 2000 chassis CTV. The back was removed and the set was facing a wall to reveal what looks like an unused set.

Imagine my horror when I noticed that the CRT neck had been smashed off so that the glass door on the display case could be closed!

This is the first time I have visited here and I could have stayed all day, it was brilliant Malc.

Default Re: Science museum visit.

The one I saw about 6 years ago was in the Secret Life of the Home display and I'm sure was all complete, I think the plaque said it had been donated or loaned by a Mr & Mrs somebody.
