The first television broadcasts to the public began in January 1929 when the BBC began regular broadcasts from their studio in London. The service expanded and continued until 1939 when television transmission was stopped because of the start of World War 2.

In the same year of 1939, RCA began commercial broadcasting in the US for the first time. Unlike the UK, US broadcasts were not interrupted during war time.
