Many thanks for the positive comments although I would say the best mocks are from the likes of German Rudnev or TVmocks2010 on YT.
ITC Midlands
Wow, seeing as this has expanded to other non ITC mocks. I might as well add to the debate by adding another Sixty Minutes mock:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui68HLp9CPE&feature=youtu.be

as the biggest rivals to his company.
So as part of a restructuring of his ACC empire, ITC Films and ATV were merged into one entity. ATV became ITC Television
Here is the regional logo for ITC Midlands for the late 60's.
ITC Midlands
What if ATV after re-winning the midlands franchise in 1968 decided to create a whole new identity. The premise is Lew Grade saw Northern Television (Yorkshire and NW England 7 days) and ABC (London 7 days)as the biggest rivals to his company.

UK Gold - Cable & Wireless, December 1997.. (2 mins in)
Bravo - Cable & Wireless, early 1998.... at 6.00 in the morning, by the way if you want to visit Raddon Court, don't bother it got demolished years ago.
Sky Box Office on Cable & Wireless -February 1998, when they felt like it, they had phases when they would constantly opt out but eventually kept the Sky feed in.
Like the Sky Box Office opt outs the rest of the opt outs on CWC were periodical, sometimes they'd would do it constantly for ages and then not bother for a while. It was a no-no to opt out of the Sky channels or any of the terrestrials either, although I can remember seeing adverts for Sky1 on some of the opt outs.

Good grief. I never imagined a former presenter would be commenting on my thread. I'm honoured.

BBC 2...BBC News Light?
Just checked Wikipedia. GMT isn't on BBC 2 anymore.I stand corrected.

The simulcast of the 11AM bulletin from the news channel plus GMT, Daily Politics and One Show repeats seems to have turned BBC 2 mornings into a mini version of BBC News with more focus on news and current affairs.
Any thoughts?

WIth all the focus on the ITV revamp I'm asking if anyone else has noticed the changes to BBC 2?The simulcast of the 11AM bulletin from the news channel plus GMT, Daily Politics and One Show repeats seems to have turned BBC 2 mornings into a mini version of BBC News with more focus on news and current affairs.

Built the Satellites, run the Satellites, broadcast on the Satellites.. No middle man
Of course Duh!
There could have operated at cost price to broadcast on it, while selling off spare space to anyone else. IE made a lot of money
I can see it now...
5 channels from the UK, plus CNN, Disney, Filmnet and TV3

British Aerospace? hmm. Why would an engineering company be interested in a tv company?
