ABC-TV Closedown (ABS-2, 27/10/1988)

Here's a ABC-TV closedown from Thursday 27th October 1988 after The World Tonight and after a 1975 film Galileo. Recorded off ABS channel 2 in Adelaide which is a part of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. Taken from a Fuji E-180 VHS Cassette. I found at my school. So I converted it to DVD. As a added bonus I've Leafed in the Promos, ABC Movie intro for Galileo. Please tell your friends about my channel and Subscribe. Hooroo! I'm Earnest Briggsy and I speak the truth about Australian TV :D

It weirded out my daughter 8 year old seeing a tv station close for the night

Sounds like the ABC turns off the transmitter remotely.

The anthem video was taken from Bicentinental ceremony, right?

Yes. This anthem clip commissioned by the ABC was recorded in January 1988, I believe.

Hi, do you happen to have an interview with a singer Basia from 27th October 1988 (ABC). The interviewer was called Chantelle I think. If yes, can I contact you, please? Thanks.
