In January 1929, the BBC began public television broadcasts from its London studios using John Logie Baird's television system. This make the England the first country to have a regular television broadcast. Baird first demonstrated his system in March of 1925. In 1936, the BBC changed its broadcast system to a fully electronic system and expanded the broadcasts.

The US did not have regular television broadcasts until 1939 when RCA used Philo Farnsworth's system to start commercial broadcasting. Although Farnsworth gave his first demonstration of his developments in 1927, he continued development work and showed off a fully electronic version in 1929. The next ten years were taken up with legal battles over patents before RCA was free to begin broadcasts.

1939 was also the year that the BBC ceased television broadcasts at the start of the Second World War. Although the BBC continued radio broadcasting, it did not resume television transmissions until 1946.
