The GPO became BT in 1981
But all phones worked on the existing lines
Here’s a few from 1981 to 1984
In 1981 they began issuing and selling push button phones
Hope that helps 😊

Couple more 😊
Actually, looking at the colour ivory colours one looks cream whilst one looks almost fawn/beige
Perception maybe?😌

Holly, the Statesman photo you posted above is a screenshot taken from Episode 4 of the ITV 'White House Farm' series, which is why I prefaced my original with 'ITV WHF...' as I do with all the screenshots taken from the series.
Similarly, the other screenshots of the grubby bedside cabinet/table where it appears the rotary-dial phone had been positioned, and the one of Stan Jones (Mark Addy) replacing the phone, are screenshots from the same episode. So not the actual original phones or bedside cabinet, although the Type 746 and Statesman in the series are real enough, probably from the ITV props department or bought in specially for the series.
Sorry for the confusion.
As an aside, a reproduction of the 746 is currently being sold by Argos with simplified internal mechanism and modern electronics...

Awww thanks Myster I must have missed your post. I didn't recognise the image Spy presented so was sceptical about it being an authentic WHF image.
It seems the GPO didn't offer a fawn Statesman:

It was only Jean Bouttell who used the term 'fawn'. There was no 'fawn' Statesman phone - it didn't come in that colour.

The engineer never said the kitchen telephone was fawn; he wrote “CREAM”
He never said it was a ROTARY, which he most certainly would have done
You’re clutching at straws, because you are desperate to hold onto your ludicrous dream that Jeremy is innocent, despite him being found guilty on OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE, losing appeals, and being incarcerated for 35 years.
Have you NO insight? Why would that kitchen phone that was in PERFECT WORKING ORDER had been hidden amongst magazines?

Hasn’t Holly responded, Caroline?😳
That’s a surprise!
That kitchen cream-coloured telephone was in PERFECT working order, yet Holly refuses to comment on that.
She’s doing herself no favours whatsoever...
Holly, what do you have to say about the fact that Caroline sought for you? You know, the one where it proves the Statesman phone was never produced in a fawn colour?
Explain please 😌
