Maybe this is old news, but I just stumbled upon a 50 minute edit of the BBC outside broadcast from the OMOH on youtube (uploaded last November). Last time I saw this being discussed on here, nobody seemed to know where to find a copy. Or maybe it was a longer edit people were looking for. Anyway, here you go

I can remember it, as a 17-year-old schoolboy, almost as if it was yesterday. Bonington being lowered off the top was the absolute highlight.

I remember it as a kid and more recently I used to have a copy of the original unedited footage on VHS loaned from the BBC Library.
Some of the original footage and comments were not broadcast live at the time, so really fascinating!!!!!!
That's useful link, if now on YouTube, so thanks...

Cheers Ron
