Introduced by American ambassador to Great Britain, Walter Gifford, this is the first British television program recorded and broadcast in the United States. A history of television in Britain follows, from the father of British TV John Logie Baird to the present where television signals are carried throughout the country by cables and radio links to broadcast towers from London to Scotland. A brief film of an early British television program originally broadcast in 1936 with the singer Sylvia Peters and ballerina Margot Fonteyn is shown. This is the first of three broadcasts originating in Great Britain about developments in British science, and is the only one known to still be in existence.
