London Weekend Television (VT Clocks)

1st Clock (1968-1981)
Visuals: A large clock is screwed onto the bottom left of a blackboard and counts clockwise to zero. Angular borders on each corner surround the interface and two serifed lines intersect at the center. Labels on the right are in boxes separated by lines:

TITLE (episode title) VTR REC & TAPE N°. (Production code) DATE REC (date of recording) TAKE (#) Variants:
 * 'PROD. N°.' would be used in place of 'VTR REC & TAPE N°.' starting in 1969.
 * 1968-1973: On color programs, the clock is beige with a white clockface and hollow legs. The legs would be removed in the early 1970's.
 * 1970-1973: The clock and clockface are black with silver mechanics and a white dial. The clock, now with triangles at each quarter, counts down from 45 to 0.
 * 1973-1979: The clock is grey with a black clockface, mechanics on the bottom, and an orange dial. The clock counts forward to 60, and the blackboard is dark green with a yellow interface. The two center lines are no longer serifed.
 * 1975-1979: Similar to the 1970-1973 variant, the clock is grey with a black clockface, mechanics on the bottom, and a white dial.
 * 1979-1981: The clock slightly changes, now with a white minute hand and an orange second hand. The mechanics below the clock are now red, white, and green. The blackboard is black with the logo 'London Weekend Television' plastered on the top left and the font of the labels change to Square Slabserif. The lines are also thicker.
