November 1936 - The ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Television Service opens

The ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ was the first broadcaster in the world to provide a regular β€˜high definition’ television service. Programmes we would expect to see today such as drama, sport, outside broadcasts, and cartoons all featured, but not for long. The outbreak of war in 1939 brought programmes to a sudden halt. The clip shows Adele Dixon singing The Magic Rays of Light
