British television was born in 1936, however it was short lived being closed down three years later for World War II - and right in the middle of a Mickey Mouse cartoon. One of the early presenters was Jasmine Bligh - chosen from1,122 hopeful applicants.
With the war over, the television service re-started. Just one channel, the BBC. To open it, there was Jasmine again. "Good afternoon everybody. How are you? Do you remember me, Jasmine Bligh?"
This 70 minute 35mm film was made "in the Spring of 1946" to be both broadcast on BBC television and shown to cinema audiences. The concept was to explain what television really is... As Jasmine says, it is to be watched at home in front of a fire.
Due to YouTube's policy of only accepting 10 min. video here is part one.

There had been commercial television in New York as early as July 1941, when NBC's experimental station W2XBS became "WNBT", and CBS' W2XAB was officially licensed as "WCBW" (and DuMont's W2XVW eventually became "WABD"), but the beginning of World War II drastically curtailed all three to just a few hours a week {mostly for Civil Defense and "military" programming}, until just before the war ended. Then, TV stations and set ownership slowly began to expand across the United States...

....in Britain, the fledgling BBC television service was suspended, at the start of World War II in Europe, on September 1, 1939...and did not sign on again until September 1, 1946. This film attempted to recapture the anticipation when BBC-TV finally went back on the air. Note: all TV images in this film were "simulated".
