That's right, but we decided that with the new hosting, we would go for a new look.

YouTube is a breeding ground for great clips of classic television presentation. It is also the breeding ground for stolen material from other websites such as TV Ark, and awful mock idents, which quite frankly is making us here at TV Live a bit mad. So, here at TV Live, we're doing something about it. We're celebrating the best television presentation channels on YouTube with this...

We're launching a competition to find the best YouTube channels showing television presentation. There are nine categories to choose from, as well as a special Administrators Choice category which goes to the website with the best YouTube content.

We've decided to axe the awards idea due to lack of interest.

Today's updates include Michael Jackson's Memorial Service and coverage of the new look MTV

We've begun work on our ITV Regional News coverage courtesy of Dragon Archive. We'll be updating the site with images from the last truly regional look, the squares look, and the current generic look.

We begin with Granada News and London Tonight, and we have more to come in the next few days.

rob, it might seem as if there was lack of interest of your site cause of that awards thing but that is not true for your site.

Keep going with it! At the rate of which you're going; by next year you will be challenging TVArk. (Pssst - your site looks a lot better than TVA, using advantage of newer graphics!!)

I agree - TV Ark obviously has a impressive archive of older material which I can spend hours flicking through and will continue to use regularly, but I'm really impressed with the current incarnation of TV Live, especially the recent regional news material you've just put up. The Youtube videos are fantastic and it's clear that you've all put a lot of effort into the site - thanks a lot.

Thanks for the comments. I'm also enjoying the latest incarnation of the site, which is a surprise after all the problems we've had recently. I feel the site has a new lease of life, and things can only get better...
