,best program by far was Tom and Jerry.                                                                                                                                                                             

My main recollection as a young child in the 50s was radio. My favourite programmes were the comedy shows on Sunday lunchtimes, particularly The Navy Lark and Beyond Our Ken. I really disliked 'Uncle Mac' in Children's Favourites. What an irritating old misery he was.

Same here...my parents were a bit old-fashioned and didn't get a TV until I was in my mid-teens, so I was brought up on the radio.
Didn't like Uncle Mac much myself either.
I caught up with all the kids TV shows when I had my own family. But that's another tale!                                                                                                                                                                             

Does anyone know if there was a TV licence in the 50s, and if so, how much it cost?

BBC[edit]
At the instigation of the Post Office, the British Broadcasting Company was established in October 1922 by a group of radio manufacturers to produce radio programmes for the users of their products. Initially the broadcasts were funded by the sale of radio receiving sets, and carried sponsored programmes.
As part of the agreement with the Post Office, the Postmaster General started to apply a condition to broadcast receiving licences that the equipment used be "Type Approved by Postmaster General" and marked with the BBC logo.
Initially, the fee for receiving licences was 10 shillings, and remained at that rate until after the Second World War.
With the forming of the public British Broadcasting Corporation<...ion in 1927, the Post Office dedicated nearly the entirety of licence fee income to the funding of the BBC.Television[edit]
The standard broadcast receiving licences covered reception of the BBC's 405-line television service between November 1936 and September 1939 at no additional cost.
The outbreak of the Second World War in 1939 led to the suspension of television broadcasts in the UK.
The television licence was introduced in June 1946 to coincide with the post-war resumption of the BBC service the same month. Television licences always included a licence to receive radio broadcasts.
From 1971, only the reception of television transmissions required a licence, and radio-only licences ceased to be issued
