Was always very strange that they used a digital clock for all the news segments from the newsroom, but an analogue clock on the rest of the output (I presume it was because of the captions on the news segments). While they did manage to integrate the news captions with the clock they never managed to do it for the main output so you always had this strange situation (as you can see at just before 49 minutes in the video) where the clock would be on top of the caption.
And of course by the time they lost their franchise in 1991 the clock was almost an afterthought with regards to other graphics, quite often being in the way of captions, graphs, two way labels...
