ČT1 (ČT Jedna, Česká televize 1, "Jednička") is a Czech public television channel, operated by Czech Television. ČT1 is a general purpose channel, showing family-oriented television, Czech movies, children's programming, news and documentaries.
History
ČST (Czech: Československá televize, Slovak: Československá televízia) started experimental broadcasting throughout Czechoslovakia on 1 May 1953 from its Prague Studio. Its first regular broadcast began on 25 February 1954.
In 1970, ČST was renamed to ČST1. In 1975, the channel transitioned from black-and-white to colour.
Following the rise of federalism in Czechoslovakia in 1990, ČST1 became F1.
On 1 January 1993, F1 changed its name to ČT1 in Czech Republic and STV1 in Slovak Republic.[1] The channel subsequently became the first channel of the new Česká televize, created one year earlier following the Velvet Revolution.
