Well said Andrew!

Sorry to disappoint some people here, but commercial tv channels are hardly likely to change bits of the schedule that perform well - however much some of us might dislike them. From a business point of view, it would be madness.

It's the areas that are underperforming that could be played around with.

if the news is moved BACK it makes it 6PM and 10PM


No it doesn't, that would be 'pushed forward'. Pushed forward means made earlier, pushed back means made later.

You mean you actually e-mailed and asked.

I bet they have a right laugh in the ITV Duty Office

It depends what you are asking.

"I heard on the internet that the news is moving to 7pm, can you tell me if it is true?"
or
"When are ITV going to get new idents?"
or
"ITV1 is cheap and tacky you shuld go back to being called the region names like Meridian and stop showing crap shows, bring back Brian Conley"

Like some people here have been known to ask, will not generate any sort of useful response and they will end up being blacklisted

I read on Digital Spy that ITV are moving the 6.30pm and 10.30pm bulletins back half an hour and moving Emmerdale to 8.30pm

I wonder if this is true, they did just hire a new head of Scheduling


They didn't hire a new Head of Scheduling did they, far as I know he's still there.

I doubt it would be filtered down to that level yet in anyway. They haven't denied it - they just don't know! If this rumour turns out to be true I would imagine the news would be broken via a press release, rather than ad-hoc answers to emails.

I don't watch Emmerdale, but my folks always watch as they usually finish tea and slump infront of Emmerdale for 30mins and then go and do something useful. I wonder how many more "out of habit" watchers there are that wouldn't bother tuning in later?
