I believe this set of commercial breaks were from after the first episode of Beast Wars, which aired on 10 April 1998. Because of the coverage of the Good Friday Peace Agreement that day, GMTV took the unprecedented - and completely baffling - step of putting Beast Wars on much *earlier* in the morning than advertised. Why they couldn't have just postponed the show until a later date, no-one will ever know, but then reportedly they were pretty much begged by the distributors to air it and would only agree to do so across a handful of days throughout the year. It was all downhill for Beast Wars on GMTV from there, two years of shoddy scheduling, half of the first season and all of the third left unaired, and some of the most heavy-handed censorship I've ever seen any broadcaster indulge in, anywhere.
Oh, and also, "SECRET DI-AH-RY! ...And a what? Secret password? BRILLIANT!"
