About this listen
Peter Weizel spent many years in the BBC working on Teletext and even wrote part of the standards so we go on a journey into the first digital broadcasting on TV. Teletext is a pioneering pre-internet information distribution system. Learn about its inception at the BBC and its evolution in broadcasting digitally across the UK and Europe since the 1970s. We look at the inner workings of Teletext, its page and data structures, and its significant role in modern broadcasting technology.
