PBC One (formerly called PBC1 both in print and on-air) is the flagship channel of the Pacitalian Broadcasting Corporation's television services. Launched 1st February, 1950 as PBC Television, it was the first nationally-available television station and remains the leading channel in terms of audience share, technological innovations and availability. PBC One was the first Pacitalian channel to test high-definition and digital television. It currently broadcasts in digital high-definition with nearly 90 percent of programs available through ActiveCast interactive services.

As the Pacitalian Broadcasting Corporation's primary channel, PBC One delivers popular mainstream content such as drama, comedy, serial-style programming, local news, national news and some sport programming. PBC One provides 2,790 hours of news programming every year despite the fact that sister network PBC Two, and the Corporation's specialty rolling news provider, PBCNews24, are both entirely dedicated to news and current affairs series.
