Default Identify this set

Another blast from the past with a picture of yours truly in about 1975 next to a Rediffusion black and white hybrid cable TV set with push buttons and radio mode which ( I think) was via a orange push button. What model is It?

Default Re: Identify this set

I'm assuming it MAY be based on a mk13 but I have not seen a similar set on the internet. This set was rented in London and I remember my dad running the set on its end one evening as it was the only way to get a picture! Probably a dodgy valveholder. I remember being fascinated by the glowing valves when the repair man had the back off the set which triggered a lifelong interest.
