I also remember it often came on during PRG errors, such as opposite program genre to the one airing, like an automation attached to the classification/closed caption/PRG bugs. During the AFL, the opposite would also occur, whereby the 2007(?)-2011 non-opaque “ten” watermark (bottom right) would come on at the start of program due to the “WS” (widescreen) bug, before fading-out and the sport one appearing correctly in the top-right. Or when a show promo super would appear in-program (which started occuring in 2010 IIRC) such as _Modern Family_, _Merlin_, _Hawke_ and _Offspring_. ---

On Hot Seat this afternoon, there was a question with a watermark related answer. Q: What anniversary did the ABC celebrate in 2022? Options A: 30th, B: 50, C: 90th, D:100th Eddie’s explanation for the answer (which was C), “you know how they have bug in the corner, it’s got the number 90 on it”… The contestant got the correct answer, but it wasn’t a very confident guess. ---
