Thank you for this of course. The later digital BBC1 Test Card F with BBC1 on it too. No Ceefax pages here though as there often were by by then; and straight into the globe as well. Well done so too!

The morning after the Kegworth air disaster. They were due on air at 7am but came on at 6 instead.

Judging by the look of the set 3:27 - it seems BBC Breakfast Time were still in Studio TC2 at BBC Television Centre. By the summer they were moved out into Studio TC7 whilst Studio TC2 was changed for the new BBC Breakfast News due to launch in autumn 1989.

In the 80s pre startup I think it varied between 1 - 2 hours, giving the TV transmitters a chance to warm up.

@@AnthonyCharaNot even that, only about 30 minutes. It took about 20 minutes for the entire chain of 600+ transmitters to start up and 10 to self-calibrate. So that would give the last transmitter to start 10 minutes to calibrate itself before BBC1 said good morning.

@@marnanel I imagine it was a computer program running on bespoke hardware (no GUI) that compared the quality of the test card and tone with a reference sound and reference tone and adjusted settings accordingly. What I do know is that transmitters started to be remotely controlled starting in the late 60s and became increasingly automated over the next decades.
