official secrets Today in History: The world's first emergency telephone number, 999, introduced in 1937

The emergency number, 999, is the official emergency number for the United Kingdom. First introduced in the London area on 30 June 1937, the UK's 999 number is the world's oldest emergency call telephone service. The system was introduced following a fire in a house in Wimpole Street on 10 November 1935, in which five women were killed. A neighbour had tried to telephone the fire brigade and was so outraged at being held in a queue by the Welbeck telephone exchange. He, then, wrote a letter to the editor of The Times, which prompted a government inquiry. Countries and territories using 999 include Bahrain, Bangladesh, Botswana, Ghana, Hong Kong, Kenya, Macau, Malaysia, Mauritius, Qatar, Ireland, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Eswatini, Trinidad and Tobago, Seychelles, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom and Zimbabwe.
