Can you provide any screenshots or links to online clips? We have a LOT of monitors at the Broadcast Engineering Museum and may be able to identify them.
I found this video. https://www.reddit.com/r/BritishTV/comme...ideo_show/ The Quadruplex VTR is, I think, an Ampex AVR2. Though it rather looks like a mock up prop. As for the monitors it's hard to tell as only the screens are visible. Possibly Barco CTVM3/51 which were common at the time. Delta gun. https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.or...ur-monitor Unlikely to have been Prowest PM22/7 as getting that many to work at the same time would have been verging on miraculous.
This photo: https://muuta.net/KennyEverett/Thames/tBest2.html with a giant 2" tape spool is great.
