This 1950 British short film, released by United World in the USA, explains how television works. It shows how an image of a man playing piano in a recording studio can be transmitted to household television sets all over the country. It covers all the technical aspects, with attention paid to the different parts of a TV camera and a television set, and the apparatus needed to deconstruct and reconstruct moving pictures. Directed by Colin Bell, the film is aided by several high quality animations created by Ken Hardy which show how dancing electrons make it all possible.

The Bush TV22 boasted a 9 inch television screen, and was made by Bush Radio Limited, England, 1945-1955. A later model with band III convertor was produced in 1957 (which facilitated access to the new ITV channel). This set was made of Bakelite and was both inexpensive and popular. It was the first British television set produced that could be tuned by the owner to either of the then two BBC transmitters, as well as a further three proposed channels.
The image orthicon (sometimes abbreviated IO), was developed by RCA and was common in American broadcasting from 1946 until 1968. A combination of the image dissector and the orthicon technologies, it replaced the iconoscope in the USA, which required a great deal of light to work adequately.

The 'Prince Of The Power Of The Air' knows exactly how it works.
That glassware was some serious craft, eh?! Excellent.
Looks simple but some one with a great mind thought of it
Many great minds were responsible for perfecting electronic television. A rather complicated and remarkable device.
It’s still one of the most fascinating and impactful inventions of all time.
And then color which had to be compatible we used 3.579545MHz color burst which made it work in NTSC.
Yep, the color burst on the back porch.
In US yea, PAL uses 4.433MHz
Thank you
Awesome reminder of just how smart humanity can be.
"Fifty time per seco-- oh, right, PAL." -- My brain at a certain point, not having picked up on the whole "BBC" thing, somehow.
NTSC - never twice same colour
SECAM - system entirely contrary to American method
PAL - peace at last!
50hz is not PAL, in these times, England used B&W 405 lines TV system; PAL is a system color, for example Brazil still uses PAL-M but switching to digital.
Nice. Kind of shocking how advanced a thing it was for that time, all of this required no computers to work, it was entirely analog. And equally shocking what this has become in less than 100 years. 4k HDR with digitally mapped, spatial 3d surround sound (Dolby Atmos).
Shocking is the right word…the anode which collects stray electrons in old televisions carries a huge charge.
Cool!
Is that a penguin on the telly?🐧📺
Way to ruin the joke. It's supposed to be:
P1: What's on the telly?
P2: It looks like a penguin.
