Here's the restoration history of the bridge >> http://www.thetowerbridge.info/
At 1.45
Also see the vid posted earlier in this thread and you see a 40's Tower bridge the same colour as the 1cTeams at approx 3 mins in.
The "coat of arms" can be seen on both these films .

The first film is dated prior to 1920 judging by the cars and film technique. The second does show the coat of arms, but as the pictures I provided showed that they were not present from 1939-1946 it shouldn't be there in BoB. Additionally, it doesn't look like the 1C one. It is as dark as can be seen in the photographs.
