Old screen grab from the BBC Sport app, Football section. 

See your Ceefax report published

A mocked-up Ceefax page, which reads:

BBC FOOTBALL
How to write a report in Ceefax
The top paragraph of a really good
Ceefax match report should endeavour to
tell the key story of the match, such 
as who scored the winner.

It should also say which sides are 
playing and why it matters, for example 
if a win means promotion for a team.

The next three paragraphs should 
describe in as much detail as possible 
every goal and the major incidents.

Write four paragraphs totalling about 
80 words, with a minimum of two lines 
and a maximum of four.

Below the Ceefax page:

#OnThisDay 2017 : The first #NationalTeletextDay premiered at that other place.

An annual event seen every year since 2017 although for me this year, I'm having a rest. ๐Ÿ˜€

Looks like the hashtag is still in use which is fab.

Teletext depiction of Bongo from the Streets of Rage series flying through the air like a bat. For a big dude he is quite acrobatic, flinging his feet above his head as he dives forward, stomach-first. Logo underneath says 'Bongo Airlines, Wood Oak City'.

Happy #NationalTeletextDay
To celebrate here are the actual VT clocks* used before Pages from CEEFAX went out, depending on the channel.

*Not the actual VT clocks, as that would be silly.
