I was looking around DS the other day and found a forum post that describes something that I'd totally forgot about.
BBC have hidden a Test menu in the BBCi Channel (LCN 105). It works on most boxes.
Go to Channel 105
As soon as the text appears press Yellow
Change Channel (I normally change channel down to Teletext)
Change back to 105
As soon as the text appears press Green
The word Secret will appear in the top corner (where the clock normally appears)
A diagnostics screen and menu will then appear (from which you can change which region BBCi thinks you are in)
Once this page appears there are a few hidden options:
Press 3 3 5 8 2 Red Green Yellow Blue - wait for about 30 seconds and the BBC testcard will appear
or
Press 2 7 3 3 4 8 7 Red Green Yellow Blue - the credits for BBCi will appear.
