The Pig?

Yes.

Scotty you have part (a) correct. Part (b) the correct answer is "the test pattern"

See below, some of you you may recall seeing it on your black and white TV set when the station went off the air.

Hey Brian, my parents told me about that test pattern.

Funny, I could have sworn you were born in the early 50's......................

You obviously have wisdom beyond your years.

Dougie Sandon was the original drummer for what UK band?

"The Detours" I say....

"The who?" you ask...

"Exactly" I reply...

Yes that's correct Evan, Keith came on the scene in April of 1964. Anyone know the circumstances of that chance meeting?

I dont remember that brian what is black and white TV?
Actually this is the one i recall from the BBC

Brian: For the complete experience of the test pattern viewing I could not resist the following link. It's all coming back to me now.

Well thanks for that peter there goes 30 seconds of my life ruined!

If you can excuse my macabre humour (halloween is upon us), that's probably also the last sound you will ever hear if you are in hospital hooked up to a heart monitor............

Scotty and Brian: Isn't that just the trick or treat of life. Knowing what period of 30 seconds spent is going to be worthwhile and what is not. When the present is past, is the past present?

Brian knowing my luck the last thing i`ll hear is "He was a twit anyway" and to Peter i dont know but Is Yesterday,Tomorrow today?

I don't know, Scotty. Nostalgia is not what it used to be.
