Start of ABC TV (1956) - 80 Days That Changed Our Lives




In July 2021, YouTube set all unlisted videos uploaded before 2017 to private (unless the channel owner had opted out). In the weeks leading up to this change, Archive Team archived many pre-2017 unlisted YouTube videos. If this video was uploaded before 2017 and has gone private, there is a chance that a 360p archived version can be viewed on archive.org via the site's Wayback Machine as follows:

1. Enter the YouTube URL in the Wayback Machine form or click on the following link:
https://web.archive.org/web/20210000000000*/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gxZP_3-yBo

2. Right-click on a blue entry in July in the calendar.

3. Click 'Copy link address'.

Description:

Tell us how one of the 80 Days on the website touched your life, and go in the running to WIN a digital SLR camera. http://j.mp/80DaysABCTV

At 7pm on 5 November 1956, the Australian Broadcasting Commission's television service ABN Channel 2 began transmission. Television was just months old in Australia.

In this excerpt from ABC television's first broadcast, host Michael Charlton, perhaps unaccustomed to being visible to his broadcast audience, seems unsure of what to do with his hands.

To celebrate its 80th birthday, the ABC created 80 Days That Changed Our Lives to showcase audio visual treasures from the ABC's 80-year-old archives. http://j.mp/80DaysABCTV
