At this stage, the BBC passes from preparations to programs. There
Are many performers, many subjects, many methods of transmission
Through the aerials of the BBC, widespread across the country, a new
Medium of education and entertainment is in course of development
Droitwich, 200 kilocycles, 1500 meters. London, 1149 kilocycles
261.1 Meters. North, 1013 kilocycles, 296.2 meters
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin to Lord Reith: "The opening of the
Wireless broadcasting station at Daventry, the highest powered
Station at present in the world, will give no fewer than 20 million
People the opportunity to receive both education and entertainment
By means of cheap and simple apparatus. And I look upon Daventry as
Another milestone on the road to
The social betterment of our people."

The cello sings in Daventry
And that is all that matters now to me
Oh, greater than all fancied wonders
This wonder that I hold in my hands
The cello sings in Daventry
A stranger plays my heart to rest and sets me free
The cello sings from out beyond the sea

The radio's a mystery
The radio's a mystery

The radio's a mystery
The radio's a mystery
The radio's a mystery
