Any ideas where the 'Howdy' image comes from? (superimposed on the flowers left hand side near bottom)

Possibly BBC TV's Whirlygig? In the Hank The Cowboy episodes, Hank always began with "Howdy" or "Howdy folks".

That's the name of the artist who created the image.

A clue... when #76 grew up did he own the factory in Coronation Street?

Jonny Briggs (Richard Holian) in BBC kids' TV's Jonny Briggs. Not to be confused with Mike Baldwin

Im sure I recognise 44 from somewhere but I cant place him at all.

There is one we missed. Directly above the C in BBC at the bottom there is a small golden egg with what looks like a disc around it. Anyone got any ideas for that one?

 

[Analoguesat]

Got it.

44 is Chris Leaver who played the half deaf butler in The Adventure Game.

Which means my identification of Uncle Aspidistra a few days ago may well be in error. ALthough I recall the instructions a few days ago and Im not admitting to any mistakes

It's an artefact from the original Sgt Peppers album cover. On that, it has a base and looks like some sort of award. However, when 'BBC' was photoshopped over 'Beatles' they lost the base...and made it look like a gold egg LOL.

 

[Analoguesat]

Apart from a slightly suspect identification of what maybe Uncle Rangdo, or nothing to do with the quiz at all thats everything isnt it?

As we have three answers from Inside No. 9, two from The Adventure Game doesn't seem unreasonable therefore a cabinet office inquiry will not be required ;)

There seem to be plenty of either BBC based ones or Sgt Peppers photoshops....

Good fun that ozumo. A reminder of some of the good stuff the BBC have turned out over the years.

Thank you for that @ozumo - good fun to think back across the years.

Sadly the good output is spread out too thin.

The Enfield/Whitehouse 'tribute' last month being an exception.

To complete number 47, I think the Lenny Henry picture is from Three of a Kind.
