Ive seen Granada, Granada Manchester, Granada London, Granada Anglia, Granada Bristol and Granada Yorkshire endcaps.
Most progs that are made by Granada Television appear to have Granada Manchester endcaps unless of course they are made in London (e.g This Morning) then they get just a "Granada" endcap.
Maybe because it made by Granada not LWT they just give it a Granada endcap not Granada London?

Sorry to go off-topic, but how many variants of the new Granada endcaps are there?
I've seen 'Granada', 'Granada London', 'Granada Manchester', and 'Granada Yorkshire'.
Is there a 'Granada Bristol' one about? How many 'regions' or production houses does the 'Granada Production' one cover?

I'm sure Paul O'Grady(I think) just says 'A Granada Production', but doesn't that that come from London anyway?

I note that ITV3 & M&M have bought some Thames programmes
from Freemantle, Rumpole of Bailey & Van Der Valk are just two.
Which channel is going to show Rumpole and when?
Well, I somewhat doubt "Rumpole Of The Bailey" would be a suitable acquisition for Men & Motors . . . !

I think quite a few people criticised ITV3, when it replaced Granada Plus, but it has to be said the "quality" programmes are now starting to filter through to the schedules, and the channel is getting better, does anyone agree?

The problem was that many people, including plenty on this Forum were quite p*ssed off when they took off Granada Plus without any warning. Most Plus programmes have been shown on ITV3, except Classic Coronation Street & Emmerdale, but if anything I believe this is where ITV3 succeeds, that it doesn't need more Soap re-runs, and it also doesn't label it as a nostagla channel such as the likes of it's former and UKTV Gold or UKTV Drama.
But 6 months on it has become a half decent replacement, an increase in older ITV material, sitcoms which people wouldn't have thought they'd see the light of day on, such as Surgical Spirit and The Grimleys have been repeated on there.
Plus there's nowhere near as many Crime programmes as Plus had, so I give them credit where credit's due.
