The British Broadcasting Corporation is a very famous TV company. It provides entertainment and information, and charms millions of viewers and listeners. The BBC was formed in 1922. The company had been created with a business mission — to sell radio sets.
The BBC grew quickly. In 1936 the BBC opened the world's first regular service of high-definition television. In 1943, the BBC set up its War Reporting Unit. BBC Radio launched a lot of historic shows in the 50s. Colour television broadcasts began on BBC in 1967. This was the 'golden age' of television.
Home video recorders arrived in the 80s, and little by little changed broadcasting. Other progress included satellite broadcasting. The appearance of digital technology and the Internet manifested a new era in broadcasting. For the viewer, digital television presented more channels and wider interactivity; for the listener, digital radio provided CD-quality sound and flexibility of service. BBC On line, an Internet service, was one of the leading websites in Europe by the end of 1999.
