At one time hand mic cables were 30Ω, colour coded blue. So sports reporters pretending to be at ‘The Game\u2019 appeared to be using some sort of overweight radio mic!<\/p>\n

Do you recall the first \u201cGrandstand\u201d using CSO?<\/p>\n

BV had instructed everyone on the floor to avoid wearing anything blue….Worked fine until one of the \u2018girls\u2019 \u2013 this was in mini skirt days \u2013 bent over a desk in shot, and  …she was wearing blue knickers.
\nThe racing results appeared in a strange place! <\/p>\n

Long ago part of my job was directing the weather. Hardly demanding, but necessary. One evening a fairly new weatherman came in wearing a greenish shirt. We had CSO blue, but I couldn’t make this green clip whatever I did, so I went in to Pres A and asked him to get a different shirt. He said "I don’t have one" – a serious mistake if you’re a presenter doing live shows. So, with a few minutes to on air I took off my shirt and gave it to him. I sat at the mixer looking a lot like Terry Jones in \u201cMonty Python\u201d.<\/p>\n

My favourite was during a local News broadcast when the presenter knocked his glass of water over and as it spread across the news desk he ended up suspended from the waist up in an aerial shot of London.<\/p>\n

My CSO disaster was on \u201cDr. Who\u201d.  We used yellow instead of blue because of the TARDIS.  One episode had Katy Manning, a blonde, dressed in a yellow dress with yellow boots, gold tights and gold make up.  She opened the door of the box and vanished!<\/p>\n
