Hmmmm, well apart from Granada up in Manchester have any of the regional ITV studios got any capacity to produce network programmes anymore?


Yorkshire Television in Leeds have


Border still have AFAIK. What will become of them under the proposals?


I doubt ITV would make much money out of anything beloning to Border TV, it'll probably just sit there and 'exist'. However, we all know that the real reason TTTV Studios are closing is not because of 'outdated technology', but because they are situated in a highly sought after area.

(For the record, TTTV have newer technology than BBC Newcastle Broadcasting House).

IIRC I think Border Television have rather small studios, as very few Network programmes have been produced from there. The only main Studio used I believe is for Lookaround.
