there's a definite late 1982/early 1983 vibe about this;' there's a late 70s/early 80s Yamaha CP-80 electric grand piano, the synthesisers are still analogue, and vocoded vocals were a big thing in 1983

The I.P.A. That's different from the Independent Broadcasting Authority, right? What does it mean? (American)

Pretty sure it's a typo and IBA was meant to be on the slide. Also not sure it's an accurate recreation anyway - C4 was a wholly owned subsidiary of the IBA until 1992, but during this time the advertising was sold regionally by the local ITV company (part of the cludge of C4 not being the 'ITV2' that was originally envisaged). As such any industrial dispute from Equity affecting the airing of advertisements would surely be a dispute with the ITV company/companies concerned and not with the IBA?
