Here's a British drama from 1986 that tells of the start of the UK television service in 1936. I first saw this when PBS broadcast it in 1986. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCtijZAQJEY

Television still fascinates me as it did when I was a kid. Whether I watch one of my vintage sets or a new flat-screen, it still strikes me as a miraculous invention. When you research what brain-power and financial investment it was to make electronic television a reality, you soon realize that it very well was a miracle!
