Nope. all the channels are "Made In . . . . ". In is still an acceptable term.

Yes, although 'on' may sound slightly better, the use of 'in' keeps the brand consistent.

Why do you need a consistent brand, for isolated local TV stations ?

Exactly. I think that could be one of the reasons why so many regions rejected the ITV 1989 generic look.

^They rejected that look because it didn't suit their image (this is definitely TSW's excuse), made their logos unrecognisable, or tried to get them right but messed up (Granada), or more than one of those reasons.
