Yep, iit was generated from the BBC World teletext service (produced by Intelfax) and translated into captions by an Apple Mac
-------
The information didn't come raw from teletext, it was specially typed up by the company and also the Journos in the World Newsroom for each page of information. Intelfax provided the data connections I believe
The text was word for word what was on the teletext pages, only without the top and bottom bit. It was automatic so if there was a mistake or an update on the teletext, it re-appeared on the breakfiller.
I've seen the computer do it!
