The Big Questions on BBC ONE - forced off-air due to technical breakdowns - 06/06/2010 10AM (FULL)

[@Dan_Blick1986]

Thanks for uploading this Blue Frog! This must be a record for the MOST number of interruptions and appearances of the BBC Fault caption appearing in one breakdown (27 in total!). Even the ones from the snooker didn’t appear this frequently! Any ideas what caused it? Presumably intermittent weather, as you’d think if it was a cable or technical query, it would get fixed then stay fixed. Not the first The Big Questions technical fault either! Ironically, once they started adding the “Apologies for the breaks in this programme” caption, the breakdowns seemed to get more frequent! 😂 Sorry for being geeky here - Timestamps of the faults: 1) @ 4:39 (brief) 2) @ 5:26 3) @ 6:47 (brief) 4) @ 8:26 (brief) 5) @ 8:47 6) @ 11:01 (brief) 7) @ 11:26 (brief) 8) @ 11:52 (brief) 9) @ 14:26 (brief) 10) @ 14:57 (brief) 11) @ 15:12 (brief) 12) @ 17:16 (brief) 13) @ 17:26 (brief) 14) @ 18:03 (brief) 15) @ 19:22 (brief) 16) @ 20:16 (brief) 17) @ 20:26 (brief) 18) @ 20:43 (brief) 19) @ 21:13 (brief) 20) @ 21:24 (brief) 21) @ 23:27 (brief) 22) @ 24:17 (brief) 23) @ 26:29 (brief) 24) @ 27:27 (brief) 25) @ 27:45 (brief) 26) @ 29:52 (brief) 27) @ 30:31 (brief) @ 30:46 - Nicky advises because of the Technical problems they are going to have to go off air @ 31:08 - Continuity with an apology for the loss of The Big Questions, leading into its replacement programme Escape to the Country @ 31:38 - Further continuity with an apology at the end of Escape to the Country, explaining why The Big Questions came off air

This is one of the (best, for enthusiasts) worst examples of technical messups from a channel in a while. So many technical difficulty screens that I thought the Hippo ident at the end was going to be another one!
