Actually it started out as Associated Rediffusion / Associated Television (or ABC Television if your going to be picky)


Try ATV - ABC Television was a separate contractor....


ATV started out as ABC, do your homework.

They were forced to change their name after a dispute with the other ABC.

Did anyone check out UTV in the middle of the night last night? I meant to but after setting the video forgot to turn it off!


I recorded each of the junctions last night and watched them this morning. Every one used the blue ident with the slow music. This was also used before the ITV Morning News.

How does the ITV Day presentation look today btw? Has it changed any or are they still using the usual presentation?

Don't have to do homework, I was there. So, how many hours were broadcast under the ABC brand or are we talking obscure business history?

While we're on the subject of homework, please revise the section on manners.

ATV's first weekend was broadcast under "ABC TeleVision" I think, although don't quote me on that as I'm not sure.

It appears they're just using the ITV50 idents for all junctions now, I have to say these are very nice and make a change from the norm. Though I'm surprised they've never said "You're watching ITV50....."

As the ITV50 ident doesn't actually name the channel you are watching, no regional variations isn't really a problem.

OK, but the ITV50 Idents are still nice though.
