Of course, the Amstrad CPC464 loose by far as the BBC micro was owned by the BBC... just like the channel broadcasting this programm.

It was clearly cheated with the "this old junk BBC do have more softwares than the brand new released Amstrad" argument. As this granted an awfull lot of "points" compaired to others tests the Amstrad won by far.

The Graphical capabilities was a bit cheated too. The CPC could display twice maximum colours (16) despite in large pixels mode.

The Fullscreen trick wasn't quite known at the time despite enabling Amstrad's CPC to really get a resolution comparable to BBC's.
