Unlikely to get makes like the above for £60 though.
That can usually be removed.
These discussions about alternative equipment are all very interesting, but has anyone noticed that the OP has not been seen since 5 minutes after his initial post, nearly 3 days ago?

Possibly! However, probably more likely, as soon as (after a couple of minutes) he read the answer he wanted to hear ...Attack of the live chassis?These discussions about alternative equipment are all very interesting, but has anyone noticed that the OP has not been seen since 5 minutes after his initial post, nearly 3 days ago?
... he probably didn't bother coming back to the forum - and hence didn't see all the other discussion and advice about his equipment, and alternatives!

Attack of the live chassis?
Indeed, but that was almost par for the course for all consumer electronic devices (radios, TVs, record players) back in the 50s and 60s - the chassis connected to one side of the mains supply, via a 2-core cable (with or without identifiers) and often a 2-pin plug (sometimes a B22 one!) or, at least, no attention/interest as regards which way around a 3-pin plug was wired!Yes ! i thought i hope it's not a HMV record player !

Ah! In retrospect, I suppose one of the reasons why all those live-chassis items were not a lot more lethal is that there was usually no earth in sight.Yes, but there was an earth ! taped to the outer sheath which i connected at the bench during repair, my boss then stuck a screw driver into the pick up socket and well……. very similar to you're 25w candle lamp we were in darkness
