Yes geggs, the answer does revolve around television..............


Silver, QI normally needs you to name the year as part of the solution. This is different. To make it easier, you HAVE the date and year!!

So is it the transmission in colour in general, or a specific programme, or a specific item on a programme. Or the testcard.
