The first color television demonstrated was in England in 1928. It was an experimental system developed by John Logie Baird just three years after his demonstration of black and white television. The system was never used publicly and indeed the electro-mechanical systems used in his systems were superseded in the 1930s. Despite that, Baird demonstrated the principles of color television that have remained in use until today.

The first public broadcast of color television in the UK was in 1967 when BBC2 was broadcast as a "high definition" signal using 625 scan lines instead of the existing 405 lines. The new resolution included color signals and allowed for a few hours of color programming each week. BBC1 and ITV followed suit soon after.

BBC 2 is the first color television channel?

In the UK, BBC 2 was indeed the first colour television channel. It started in 1967 and used the new "high resolution" format of 625 lines instead of the 405 lines that had been use on the black and white broadcasts. Within 3 years, BBC 1 and ITV had adopted the new format and also began broadcasting in colour. Although the broadcast format supported colour, only a few hours of colour television were broadcast each week during the 1960s. By 1973 the great majority of output was in colour on all three channels.
