The first place I ever watched a TV was in the guards barracks. I used to deliver bits and pieces from our shop and now and again the guard on duty would let me in to a smoke filled room where a black and white TV sat in the corner. I can't remember any details about what I watched but I remember being amazed at the concept. I remember also when we got our first TV. I was about 10, so around 1963. I vividly remember Willie Ainsworth from the cinema watching it in our sitting room and pronouncing: 'It'll be the end of the picture house.'
