"The 1969 moon landing has been voted the historical moment that people &amp;quot;wished they could have recorded, had the technology been available&amp;quot;, according to new research published today.  A study conducted by electronics firm Samsung revealed that 53% of those surveyed pinpointed the US Apollo 11 mission to the Moon on July 20, 1969 as the moment they would have most liked to have recorded using a timeshift service, such as Sky+ or Freesat+.  An estimated 500 million people worldwide watched the moment Neil Armstrong and co touched down on the moon&amp;#039;s surface, which was the largest TV audience for a live broadcast at that time. The end of World War II on Victory Pacific Day in 1945 came next, with 38% of people wishing they could have recorded the celebrations, followed by Martin Luther King&amp;#039;s iconic 1963 &amp;#039;I have a dream&amp;#039; speech (30%), the collapse of the Berlin Wall in 1989 (29%) and the moment England won the World Cup in 1966 (28%). Kate and William&amp;#039;s royal wedding balcony kiss topped a poll of &amp;quot;live TV moments we would like to watch again&amp;quot;, with 20% of the vote, followed by 17% for Queen&amp;#039;s Brian May performing &amp;#039;God Save the Queen&amp;#039; on the roof of Buckingham Palace for the Golden Jubilee and 14% for the moment Barack Obama was elected as president of the United States in 2008.  Of the TV entertainment moments during the last year, nearly a quarter (24%) wanted to see James Corden&amp;#039;s Comic Relief sketch as Smithy from Gavin &amp;amp; Stacey again, while more than one-fifth of people (22%) were keen to see Ann Widdecombe&amp;#039;s flying tango dance routine from Strictly Come Dancing.   Among the soap moments, 37% would have recorded Angie&amp;#039;s surprise when Den handed her divorce papers on Christmas Day 1986 on EastEnders, followed by Charlene and Scott&amp;#039;s Neighbours wedding in 1987 (29%), and Kat Slater&amp;#039;s revelation that she was Zoe&amp;#039;s mother in 2001 on EastEnders (27%). The moments in life people would most like to rewind back to see again was the birth of their first child, with 21%, followed by their wedding day (18%) and the first date with their partner (11%). Elsewhere, the research also revealed that 58% of respondents claimed to use timeshift services to catch up on TV shows at a different time to the broadcast schedule, while 12% said that they would if they could.  More than two-thirds of people (69%) had paused live TV, with 50% having done so to go to the toilet, 47% to take a call from relatives/friends and 38% to make a cup of tea.  Britain is also a nature of TV addicts, with one in five admitting to missing their favourite programmes most while on holiday, ahead of their pets (25%), their mums (11%) and British cuisine (7%). Discussing the survey results, Samsung UK general manager of the STB - AV Division Warren Hampton said: &amp;quot;As a nation we are no longer governed by TV schedules; we have the freedom to watch what we want, when we want.&amp;quot; Samsung&amp;#039;s research was carried out online by Opinion Matters between July 25 and July 29, with a panel of 1,192 adult respondents. Last November, a report by Thinkbox indicated that the majority of on-demand viewing is done by people catching up on missed TV shows, casting doubt on the supposed death of the linear schedule.
