Underwater photography in 20,000 LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA (1916). Underwater scenes had been popular since the 1890s but had been achieved via sets, props and even shooting through a water tank. This film was properly in the ocean.

OTD in early British television: We take for granted live coverage and analysis of Budget speeches today, but television had to learn how to make such broadcasts, a process that began on Tuesday 26 April 1938. www.illuminationsmedia.co.uk/otd-in-early...

Interesting how many of these videos are of TV shows, compared to films. Seems strange now that you might go down WH Smiths and pay money to own a TV show.

No surprise re. BBC considering denying access to written archive files unless the files have been vetted; this has already happened to an extent with their television archive (no Savile/DLT allowed outside of BBC property). More stupidity from certain sections of BBC management.
