In October 1925, he asked a young man, William Taynton, for his help. William stood under the lights in Baird’s workshop. He was hot and frightened. He was the first person on television! In 1926, Baird showed the first moving pictures on TV and in 1928 he sent the first pictures from London to New York. In 1929, he made the first TV programmes for the BBC. In the 1930s, televisions were very small. The picture was black and white and it wasn't very good. People didn't have TVs at home because they were very expensive. In 1939 there were only about 15,000 TVs in the UK. Baird also invented colour television in 1928 but colour TVs didn't become popular until the 1960s. Things are very different now.
