I notice that TCN isn’t included in the list of stations for that Big Bro promo. Were they showing it at a different time (or did they have a different program on GEM/GO) and needed a different promo? ---

Between tonight’s eposide of Antiques Roadshow and Hard Quiz here in Brisbane on Channel 20 a tile came up saying something like ABC Darwin MCR and a phone number that had a NT prefix. I didn’t have my phone at the time so couldn’t get a photo. It lasted about 10 seconds. ---

Test patterns often have a moving element so you know the feed hasn’t frozen. The new Gravity Media truck at the MET Expo had different bouncing icons on different test pattern screens - snowman, soccer ball, etc. Not a great photo, but you can kinda see some of the icons: ![IMG_9259](https://mediaspy-org-s3.s3.dualstack.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/original/4X/7/8/0/780c6ed1d5cf90eac1917fc7f685af3300fcddb9.jpeg) ---

I believe the snowman test card is generated by SONY CCUs. You can also pick a whale, and other icons. ---
