Re: How good were 1950's/1960's Band 1 TV receivers?

I've just bought (from Oxfam!) a copy of a BBC TV 25th anniversary
publication from 1961. Absolutely fascinating - it gives a good
technical history from pre-war years to early 625 line and colour test
transmissions.

Does the history of 625 line and colour test transmissions part of the book make any mention of the test films broadcast on BBC 2, I believe. I have been trying to find one or more of these films which showed delightful young ladies attired in bikinis snorkelling amongst coral reefs? If I could see these films again, it would make an old man very happy.

If your book does provide any useful mention of the films, please would you post the ISBN and/or title of the book.
