On its way now to teletext recovery hero @jamienemeth.bsky.social - 60 tapes carefully selected from the Mountain. Each has been checked: if their labels are right, there’s a missing edition of Digi on each one. That’s 2% of all broadcast Digi in that box. There’s more ready to go if you want a box

Another box of 60 tapes culled from the Mountain and handed to @neilsmiles.com to work his teletext recovery magic. Thanks Neil! If you’d also like a batch to release the teletext from its magnetic tape prison, let me know and I’ll send them to you (if you’re in the UK or Ireland, I’ll pay postage).

With #teletext you never had to muck about with CAPTCHAs. The 30 second or so wait for your selected page to appear was much more bearable in comparison.
A teletext page with the header "captchoozle!".

At the top of the page is the prompt "to verify you are a human, select the image of a car". There are a group of four large icons arranged as a two by two grid of black icons on white rectangular backgrounds. Each icon has a prompt above consisting of a coloured square and the name of that colour next to the square.

The icons are of a tram with a "red" prompt, a tractor with a "green" prompt, a car with a "yellow" prompt and a lorry with a "blue" prompt.

Just to add to the growing sense of creeping decrepitude the first Digitiser Live was seven years ago today. A lovely tribute to a special man named Bronk.
A slightly over elaborate Digitiser Live promotional poster designed with a Victorian style as if heralding the performance of some sort of freak show.
