Rediffusion Thanet had 29,000 wired vision subscribers in 1975. At this time the ( South East ) region was experimenting with 'Teletext', providing a selection of decoded pages on the BBC2 channel during times of the day when no scheduled programming was broadcast. The region was also pioneering 'Fibre Optic' cable achieving transmission distances of up to one mile.
