Oh, wait... is it really 2016 already? Change that to cantankerous old git lost in a space-time vacuum!
It's a science/technology show OB. The idea is to rebuild the equipment in order to understand the challenges they faced as well as to see what results they got, because there is no surviving recording from that first night's broadcast. The whole thing has been shot in 1080HD, as is now standard for BBC productions.
