Mark - FWIW, my BBC7 2003-11-08 copy runs 28m46s, includes Gloria Hunniford, but excludes an extended playout (probably the BBC7 continuity announcer started talking over the music - I always delete that). Your ABC recording (and a couple of other ABC recordings I have) seems to suggest that by 1995/1996 TS were simply issuing the UK broadcast version without shortening the running time.
