I noticed that central news west signs off reports with "ITV central news" yet east doesn't. The two programs come from the same building! (Arguably the same studio) so why isn't it the same?

I like the idea of my region being called ITV Central News and Central Tonight for the 6pm programme.

One thing I was on about, why do ITV want to just call Wales News, "Wales News", surely they would want to promote it is ITV's Wales News and not just any Wales News.

Trouble is with Central News, they have competitons on 6pm, and Central Tonight would suit it much better. But they keep the childish Central News at Six.


It is called ITV Wales News I think - all the reporters end their reports with ITV Wales News rather than just Wales News.
