Granada definately shows their titles into Lunchtime News/ News At Ten, I am rather certain that most regions do this, but I am certain that London doesn't, if you have access to ITV News Channel, you can see LT when they show LN or NAT on there and they don't show the titles, they just cut to the presenter, they sometimes show a caption saying 'Switch to ITV1 to see your Regional News.'
I have seen London Today on the LN on the ITV NC and they don't show London Weather, they opt out of that and show ITV NC Weather and if they have time to spare they show the countdown thing, which has the extended music to ITV NC. To be honest what is the point, as I don't think that many would be watching, but the other week they opted out early and we got the end of Carlton/London Weather by mistake.
Though I saw some of it the other day and rather strange that London Today, now has a sting which has the words London Today on a clouds background with the ITV1 News Ident music on it, since when did they start doing this?

I know Central News West does. Do any others?

Granada does. I think it looks out of place as i thought the whole point of having the regionsl news whithin the ITV News was to unify the two. If they wanted two seperate programmes perhaps they should move the regional news back to where it was i.e. 11.20pm and whenever it was during the day.
