If it’s on the cuff and isn’t barcode, then (assuming it’s RAF) then that narrows it down to WO or MAcr.

From my previous post whats this cuff rank
Do you have a link to the original video, please?
It was a Senior Under Officer (SUO) at the RAF College. One per squadron promoted from the Senior Entry along with 3 or 4; can’t recall which; Under Officers (UO) who wore Pilot Officer braid. The SUO/UOs would have disappeared with 101, the last cadet Entry, in March 1973.

Edit to add: Flight Cadet in this case, not officer cadet related.
To complete the picture, all Flight Cadets wore a white disc behind the badge on their beret or a white band on the SD hat. They had rectangular gorget patches on the tunic with a coloured central stripe to indicate their squadron: A Sqn red, B Sqn Yellow, C Sqn Blue and D Sqn Green. The penultimate entry (2nd most senior) had a small gilt crested button on their patches and the senior entry the same with the addition of gold lace on the edges.
