The first public, scheduled broadcast of television was in January 1929 by the BBC from their studio in London. They used Baird's "Televisor" system and delivered a very limited but timetabled broadcast from that time on.
There were other experimental broadcasts in the years preceding 1929, both in the UK and the US but none that the public could watch on their own television set.
