The British Broadcasting Company, Ltd. was founded in London on Wednesday October 18, 1922 and became a commercial radio broadcaster licensed by the British General Post Office. On Saturday January 1, 1927, the company was granted a Royal Charter and was renamed the British Broadcasting Corporation (commonly abbreviated to BBC). The BBC commenced experimental television broadcasts on August 22, 1932, using a 30-line system developed by John Logie Baird, the inventor of the television. It officially launched the world's first regular high-definition television service at 3pm on November 2, 1936, broadcasting from Alexandra Palace in London. The service initially used two systems - the Baird 240-line system, and the 405-line system developed by Marconi-EMI (named after Guglielmo Marconi, inventor of the radio). From February 1937, only the 405-line system was used. The service was suspended upon the outbreak of World War II on September 1, 1939, and resumed on June 7, 1946. Transmissions switched to a new site at Crystal Palace on March 28, 1956, and the service was renamed [[BBC One (UK)|BBC One]] on 20 April 1964 when [[BBC Two (UK)|BBC Two]] was launched.

'''Logo:''' On a black background, we see a circle with batwings and points on the top and the end. Below it is "'''{{Font|Impact|B B C}}'''".
 
'''Variants:'''
*On a {{Font color|silver|light gray}} backround, surrounded by a checkerboard border, the symbol from the original logo is shown, except the design of the wings, the circle and arrows look different. The text '''''BBC''''' in bolder text is shown in white below, and in black above.
*On a {{Font color|darkgray|dark gray}} background, the symbol from the original logo is shown in a black circle, yet it lacks the detail in the circle in wings. Two flag-like shapes are beside the circle, which have designs descending from white to black. The text "BBC" is in a different, skinnier font, in white above and in black below.
 
'''FX/SFX:''' The moving concentric circles and the shining batwings.
 
'''Music/Sounds:''' None, but may contain music and/or a continuity announcer.
 
'''Availability:''' Extinct on TV.

'''Variants:''' There were many variants including wave-shaped color bars in different shades of white and black, along with one that consists of a "compass" with some bat wing-like shapes on the sides in various shades of gray with "BBC" on the top and bottom, all on a gray BG.
