A guided tour through the  history of broadcast TV tech from the inimitable Norman Green

In 2017, Norman Green, the retired ITV Network's first Head of Technology, was asked at very short notice to give an 'after lunch' talk to a group of retired senior BBC Managers and staff from Engineering and Operations. 
Norman decided to tell them how he got into the 'Fun Factory' that was television and then how, through his career, he had worked with BBC staff on many occasions. This video is an illustrated version of that talk.

Introduced by Paul Mason
Former BBC Chief Technical Coordinator, International Operations
