I saw the images from the disc scanner. I have no reason to believe they were faked for the programme. I saw Hunt's team adjusting the disc and the photomultipliers. I saw the pictures appearing on their PC via a high speed data acquisition system. I saw the VGA output converted to 625. But I was busy with my own work for the programme and didn't look at the details of the disc.
One imbalance in the programme was that Hugh Hunt presented from first hand experience and that of his team. Danielle George, while being a top class engineer, was presenting other people's material. She's a brilliant presenter (she gave the RI Xmas lectures a few years ago) and her MBE was awarded "for services to engineering through public engagement" but in the last resort she was a name and a face, not the person who did the work for the programme.
