The Power Behind the Button - British Telecom Showreel | BT Heritage

I'm going to have to replace the multiple ads with this full video as there were several issues uploading each advert individually. The first few seconds of this video are frozen due to issues with YouTube and I cannot solve this but it is the same as elsewhere in the video. Below is the description provided by BT Heritage.

It's more reliable, clearer, cheaper to run and it won't become outdated because if anything new does come along you can fit it in. Just like that". Lightlines. Tom Baker: "You're looking at a telephone cable that uses laser light to carry calls. British Telecom's glass fibre lightlines give clearer communications and require less maintenance. But the staggering thing about them is the speed with which they'll carry information. For example the entire text of this thirty volume summary of human knowledge in under half a second. And since they carry moving pictures as well as sound, their use is limited only by our imagination". Voiceover: "British Telecom, the power behind the button". Business World.
