    Good catch , I noticed that as well . Although , I'm sure Mr. Baird would be a bit surprised by some of today's programming that airs on his invention .

    Baird's mechanical TV system is not the system in use today, However he was the first to make any TV work,
    Baird also did the first transatlantic television,
    The First Video recording,
    The First electronic Colour Cathode ray tube, as used until very recently,
    He was also involved with Fibre optics,
    RDF (Radio Direction Finder),
    Radar,
    and infra red imaging.
