The first public broadcast of television was in 1929 by the BBC from their new television studios in Crystal Palace, London. The system was based on John Logie Baird's television first shown to the public in 1925. The system was an electro-mechanical one and used a rotating disc to assist in creating the 30 line image. The system lasted for 5 years at which time the BBC adopted a fully electronic system for the first time.
Also in 1929, Philo Farnsworth demonstrated the first fully electronic system. His previous demonstrations in 1927 were electro-mechanical like the Baird system. Legal battles dogged those involved in development of television in the US and public broadcasts in America were only started in 1939. When it started, it was a fully electronic system based on Farnsworth's work.

When did flat screen tvs come out?
The world's first television system, The Televisor, by John Logie Baird is also the world's first flat screen television. The display used a backlight of varying intensity with a rotating disc in front of the light to act as a shutter. As the shutter exposed each part of the image, the lamp intensity was adjusted to create a light or dark area. The Televisor was first demonstrated to the public in 1925 and went into scheduled service by the BBC in 1929, so becoming the first regular broadcasts. By the mid 1930s, the televisor was being replaced by cathode ray tubes. These have remained in use until plasma and LCD televisions once again made flat screen televisions available in the late 1990s. LCD displays have been available from the 1980s but were limited in size and quality. The improvements in design and manufacturing have seen a gradual increase in both size and quality of image over the past two decades.
