Yes they did this in early70's to release the (expensive) tapes for re use -what a mistake They threw the telecine copies out as rubbish in skips !.However, on the bright side, they would have sent out copies or film trasnscriptions to other broadcasting organisations round the word -many of whom have probably still got these in their vaults and they may be rediscovered. Take the example of the recent find of two "lost "Dr Who Stories found in storage in Africa (my dad was in one of these but that's another story .......)
