First live TV from the continent 27 August 1950
The first outside broadcast from France was made on 27 August 1950 in a one hour special Television Crosses the Channel. Richard Dimbleby introduced live pictures of the Hotel de Ville in Calais, and a long programme of civic celebration and entertainment. The event - timed to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first cross-channel telegraph message - showed the people of Calais en fete, in a city still devastated by the war.
