What you find on YouTube isn't the correct episode either. I only found a black-and-white one which is longer than the DVD version I have (for unclear reasons) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRMbE8ScdtE . There, you can see the computer system starting at around 0:24:20 and 0:36:00. There clearly is a tape system, plus a terminal (0:24:47). However, the quality of that particular video is even worse than what I have on my DVD, so it is unlikely to be much help in recognizing brand names.
