Thought some may like to see some of the testcards I've grabbed recently feedhunting.

Nice! Is Testcard F with "BBC 2 Colour" still being used? If so, that's awesome. I suppose Pages from Ceefax is long gone.

I just digitized an old VHS tape from the early 90s with some testcards on it. I'll work on posting them here too.

No all the BBC Testcards were part of a overnight airing of recreations of testcards used by the BBC before BBC HD closedown permanently and replaced with BBC Two HD.

Pages from Ceefax ended October of last year.

Can also be used for a quick and dirty calibration on your TV if you grab the MP4 from above.

I remember that BBC2 Colour testcard very well. Growing up I was getting that channel OTA across the channel in Northern France, together with BBC 1, TVS and Channel 4, from the Dover transmitter. Thanks for sharing!
