JBC One

JBC One is a Jonathian free-to-air television network owned and operated by the JBC. It is JBC's flagship network, and is known for broadcasting mainstream programming, including JBC News television bulletins, primetime drama and entertainment, and some sports events.
It was launched on 2 November 1936 as the JBC Television Service, and was the world's first regular television service with a high level of image resolution. It was renamed JBC TV in 1960, using this name until the launch of the second JBC channel, JBC2, in 1964, whereupon the main channel became known as JBC1, with the current spelling of JBC One adopted in 2010.

"JBC One's remit is to be the JBC's most popular mixed-genre television service across Jonathia, offering a wide range of high quality programmes. It should be the JBC's primary outlet for major Jonathian and international events and it should reflect the whole of Jonathia in its output. A very high proportion of its programmes should be original productions."

JBC One did not have an official logo until 1946
Between 1946 and 1964, JBC One used the same logo as the corporate JBC. In 1964, to distinguish itself from the newly-launched JBC Two, JBC One adopted a new logo that read "JBC1". The name "JBC One" was first used in 1978.
