I suspected if I hadn't found swmbo, I'd be looking through VHS tapes to recover any teletext. Sad as it was, teletext and ceefax were the highlight of my weekend early mornings and my summer holidays (sad I know), reading through the pages. I remember creating our own teletext pages using software in secondary school. | |

Not sure how many were there as the day was split into two halves - one for Digi fans, one more serious for Teletext enthusiasts. My original tickets were for the evening, but I was sent an upgrade out of the blue by Mr Biffo. So probably 300 in total, maybe more. It was certainly full - I've never seen at many people in the museum before. It was also open to the public over the day, so there were people there who were not there for the event.
When we left, we sought our Mr Biffo to say thanks and well done, and I did ask if he would do it again, and he said "yes" with no hesitation. I think he was very pleased with how it went. He's been talking a bit more about next year on Twitter. He certainly seems to want to do more like this.
More videos are surfacing from the day, they are on the Digi2000 site, and are a bit crazy.
His next project seems to be a crowd sourced series of videos which he'll be making.
