Great caps on TV Live though, thanks for the link. Odd that the page didn't come up in my Google searches at all.


Google is really really bad for that, mind you google does this alot with other websites.

There's no meta data on the page, that doesn't help.

AFAIK, STV has not mentioned an official launch date...

I doubt it'll launch on Thursday. There's normally loads of marketing before a launch date, and there's been zilch thus far.

I think there was early talk of a March launch but it's been held up by the technical demands of getting the Ayr, Dundee and Aberdeen frequencies on air at the same time as launch. As an educated guess I would say May is the probable launch date.

I believe the channels were supposed to be on air by 2nd March 2017, but the document which stated that was lost in the revamp of the Ofcom website.

Obviously the launch has been postponed with agreement of Ofcom.

They will all have launch on or after the STV2 launch. They'd at least want Dundee and Aberdeen to launch at the same time, so that any publicity on STV News North would apply to both areas.

So will this be one fully-networked channel with no local content on each licence? If so, how did that come about?
