    Some information about Ferguson themselves

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferguson_Electronics

    At the start of the 1980s they were part of Thorn EMI (the same EMI who originally released all the Beatles records and invented the Body Scanner used in hospitals). They were a popular TV manufacturer, designing and making TVs in UK. A tie in with JVC meant they were one of the main supporters of the VHS video format. However, their VCRs were just JVC models rebadged Ferguson.

    Similarly, I expect this model was made for them by some other company, and there were probably AKAs of it sold under different brands elsewhere in the world.
