Rats - mine does, but is in storage in Cambridge...
The TNMoC one in Milton Keynes was working before it was put into storage
there a while ago, so it probably still does - but it sounds like this TV
company did contact the museum about the Prestel stuff way back when and then
went quiet; far as I know there's been no contact about needing a Domesday
system... (I've forwarded your email just in case)
