While Radio broadcasting was still in its infancy the marvel of

television was already being developed.The first step towards its invention

was taken in 1873 but the person responsible for developing it was John

Logie Baird. In 1926 he gave the first demonstration of a television

picture.

As a home entertainment,television rapidly became more popular than

any other forms.A news broadcast became more immediate when people

could actually see the scene in question and the movements of the

figures.Films could be viewed in the comfort of the home and variety

shows were also available.One of the advantages of travel programes was

the glimpse of far-away places which many viewers wuold not otherwise

have seen. Though much of the entertainment was of a popular kind line

quiz competitions,some remarkable cultural programs were also

broadcast.Just as with radio in earlier days,the publicity given to actors

and actresses on the screen meant that a group of personalities became

familiar in every household.One of the most popular programs was

televised coverage of sport and an interesting result of the television

broadcast was the increased attendance at the actual events.How far this

was due to a growth in interest in the game and how far out of the

spectators

desire to appear on the screen was not clear.
