ITV1+1 and STV+1 and UTV+1 Launch

ITV 1 + 1 not on Sky EPG yet, but Sky do like to leave things to the last minute. BBC One HD didn't appear until just a couple of hours before launch.

However, the label on the channels when added manually have changed from numbers to:
ITV 1 + 1 London
ITV 1 + 1 Gra Bdr
ITV 1 + 1 Central
ITV 1 + 1 South E

UTV +1 is still 10125
STV +1 is still 10225
12165 is ITV1 +1 but can't tell which region, presumably Yorkshire based on the first post of this thread.

Does anyone know where ITV 1 +1 Wales/West is that people have reported on Freeview? It doesnt appear to be on Satellite.


edit: UTV + 1 has just started broadcasting programmes, not showing the slide anymore.

UTV +1 just briefly showed a slide during adverts, presumably testing it:



Sorry I don't have capture facilities.

131 has gone off the Sky EPG

Yep, ITV 2 +1 has moved to 179, ITV 3 +1 to 180, and ITV 4 +1 has disappeared (I believe this won't be coming back).

That's odd, because on Sky it's labelled as 'ITV1+1 West', which I assume will annoy some Welsh people.

On my Freeview (Channel 33) it's just labelled as ITV1+1.

Which transmitter are you picking that up from, down there in deepest Cornwall, Chris?

Where did you find it on Sky, because I couldn't on the frequencies above and it's not on 131 yet.

It's on Txp 14, which is 11973 V, 27500, 2/3. It's an encrypted Sky transponder, not a Freesat one.

Redruth .... advance the ITV1+1 EPG to 1900 tomorrow ... Says Wales Tonight here.

Found it, thanks.

... so it does.

I've just checked mine from the Plympton transmitter.

Says the same down here in Bristol as well on ITV1+1 (Freeview)

It's very interesting if ITV1+1 for Wales, West and Westcountry is really carrying ITV1 Wales + 1.

Not so much for the news - few people will bother watching their "local" news on +1 and plenty of other regions won't have their news on the +1 anyway - but does this mean viewers in two English regions will be seeing the Welsh opt-out programmes? And won't the ITV1 Wales breakbumpers and opt-out trails seem confusing?

Will some clever set-up over-ride this. For instance, different bumpers or following the network schedule apart from news? Or might the last bits of ITV1 Wales presentation be about to vanish?
