Nov. 13, 1957 - T.V. In The Bathroom - At Building Exhibition: Highlight of the London Building Exhibition which is being held at Olympia - is the demonstration of T.V. in the bathroom and is designed by Dennis Potts a plastic panel manufacturer. One screen enables the bather to keep on viewing while scrubbing the back - and the other two screens are coupled to the front and the back doors. If the housewife is in the bath she can just flick a switch - and up comes a picture of the caller with whom she can carry on a conversation. The system does not work in reverse
