Well it is there, just have a closer look.  It's a small white box with itv.com in it, which shines away.

It looks quite good, but I thought it would be itv.com/region

Well not all of the regions have a website. YTV has a corporate site which is only really for the industry, it would be of little interest to the viewing public.

Oh and I really wanted them to link to that border.com site, ah well.

Hmmm, no itv.com on Tyne Tees just now, and the nice female announcer (I like her voice, it's friendly!) mentioned the TT name! Yay!! Very Happy

Wow! I didn't think it was possible to make the hearts idents look any worse. I was wrong.

well it might only be a small insigificant change but itv.com is here to stay!

on HTV the idents now state itv.com and the slides between programmes all have itv.com - even the end of the local news had this new url itv.com/htvwales/news

htv have done a sterling job in removing any sign of htvwales.com - so there are no links now to htvwales.com which is a shame as it provides a better service than itv.com ever could

itv.com is toooo slow and doesnt havent that much content

whoever is creating this itv.com website please take a look at htvwales.com and see how a proper website should operate and what parts are important!

i hope the regional websites do not disappear as they are in effect a public service and are a modern equivalent of the teletext services for example!

O, ye of little faith! I can't think of any corporate ITV branding that has ever looked any good, apart from perhaps the 3D rotating device for ITV Schools - on Channel 4... Wink

Just before 'The People Versus' there was an advert saying that the CITV website is now itv.com/citv too.

geez i remember that rotating itv schools ident! how cool was that! it was really addictive and hypnotic as you kept watching the shadow/reflection in the itv going around the back and always hoped that they would sorta hit each other but never did! or maybe i just had a sheltered life.................

nearly as good as that blue clock on schools programmes where everyone used to 'shoot' the second hand everytime it ticked off! any sites out there with these two classics on em?

Ah yes, there it is, before Emmerdale. I wonder if they are only showing it on the full ident?

I think it looks OK actually... not bad by itv standards!
