HC Deb 11 April 1951 vol 486 c82W
85. Lieut.-Colonel Lipton

asked the Postmaster-General what arrangements have been made to enable sound and television broadcasts to be relayed through the telephone system.

Mr. Ness Edwards

The question whether the telephone line system should be used to carry sound broadcast programmes to subscribing listeners has been considered from time to time but at no time has a decision to establish such a service been taken.
