Everyone knows that Scotsman John Logie Baird invented the first television: in the early 1920s, he made a basic TV which transmitted pictures, but he didn't develop his idea further. But not many people know that Vladimir Zworykin, a Russian inventor, invented the first electronic TV in 1929. People often call him 'the father of TV' as his invention became the basis of all modern TV.
The BBC made its first TV programmes in 1936. Most people didn't watch, as there were only about 100 TV sets in Britain at that time. There were programmes for only 2 hours a day -except Sundays, when they didn't show any programmes at all! As well as news and sports, cookery programmes were popular even in the 1930s: Frenchman Marcel Boulestin became the first TV chef in 1937. The first TV advert, in 1941, was for a Bulova clock: it lasted 20 seconds and the company paid just $9 to show it during a baseball game in New York. Technology started to develop faster and faster in the second half of the 20th century, Color TV came to the USA in thr 1950s, to Japan in 1960 and to Europe and South America in thr late 1960s and early 1970s. Meanwhile, in 1967 people all over the world watches as The Beatles sang on the programme Our World, the first ever satellite TV programme. The world's first video recorders came from Japan in the mid-1970s, but DVD players didn't appear until November 1996, also made by Japanese companies.
From 2005, it became possible to watch TV on your mobile phone, thanks to 3G technology. The first country to change from analogue to digital TV was the USA in June 2009. Canada and Japan did the same in 2011. People watched the first TV programme nearly 80 years ago. After the huge changes in TV broadcastingin the 20th century, who knows what the next 80 years will bring?

Dentist Dr Uchenna Okoye gets up every day at 4.30 a.m., weekends and holidays included. It's not because she's a bad sleeper. And it's not because she starts work early -her dental surgery doesn't open until 8.30. And she's not one of those people who are always in bed by ten -in fact, she usually goes to bed after midnight. She gets up at this time because she's a 'short sleeper' -a person who can live happily on much less than the seven or eight hours of sleep that most of us need. And, amazingly, Uchenna is energetic all day. Dr Okoye works eight hours at her dental surgery 'London Smiling', she appears regularly on TV programme Ten Years Younger, she does regular work for charity and she even has time for piano lessons! 'People are often surprised when they get emails from me late at night, or early in the morning... buy I never need much sleep, and I always feel good on it. It's just the way I am,' says Uchenna, 41.
Many short sleepers, like Dr Okoye, are energetic and successful in life. Famous short sleepers include Leonardo da Vinci, John F. Kennedy, and Madonna. Being a short sleeper has other advantages too -you habe 15-20% more time to do things, and short sleepers are often slim too. But here's the bad news. Only about 3% of people are short sleepers -for most us, sleeping for only three or four hours a night just isn't enough.
In contrast, there are 'long sleepers' -people who regularly sleep ten hours or more a night. (In fact, before the invention of electric light in the 19th cemturr most people slept for ten hours). Babies are the biggest long sleepers -they sleep up to 18 hours a day in the first few weeks of life. Teenagers also typically need ten hours sleep. Many people believe that long sleepers are less healthy than short sleepers. But the latest research shows there are no differences in health or personality between the two groups.

It's just the way I am,' says Uchenna, 41.
Many short sleepers, like Dr Okoye, are energetic and successful in life. Famous short sleepers include Leonardo da Vinci, John F. Kennedy, and Madonna. Being a short sleeper has other advantages too -you habe 15-20% more time to do things, and short sleepers are often slim too. But here's the bad news. Only about 3% of people are short sleepers -for most us, sleeping for only three or four hours a night just isn't enough.
In contrast, there are 'long sleepers' -people who regularly sleep ten hours or more a night. (In fact, before the invention of electric light in the 19th cemturr most people slept for ten hours). Babies are the biggest long sleepers -they sleep up to 18 hours a day in the first few weeks of life. Teenagers also typically need ten hours sleep. Many people believe that long sleepers are less healthy than short sleepers. But the latest research shows there are no differences in health or personality between the two groups.
Statement: 97% of people are long sleepers.

Dentist Dr Uchenna Okoye gets up every day at 4.30 a.m., weekends and holidays included. It's not because she's a bad sleeper. And it's not because she starts work early -her dental surgery doesn't open until 8.30. And she's not one of those people who are always in bed by ten -in fact, she usually goes to bed after midnight. She gets up at this time because she's a 'short sleeper' -a person who can live happily on much less than the seven or eight hours of sleep that most of us need. And, amazingly, Uchenna is energetic all day. Dr Okoye works eight hours at her dental surgery 'London Smiling', she appears regularly on TV programme Ten Years Younger, she does regular work for charity and she even has time for piano lessons! 'People are often surprised when they get emails from me late at night, or early in the morning... buy I never need much sleep, and I always feel good on it. It's just the way I am,' says Uchenna, 41.
