Was the following networked? or only shown locally?

* Money go around: http://ftvdb.bfi.org.uk/sift/series/10853 Thames:
* Do it herself: I believe thames.


Do it Herself definitely rings a bell with me - was it perhaps repeated on Channel 4?


EDIT:

Do it herself was a GTV programmes on 1982-84: Somehow I gotten the names mixed up with anotther thames sounds a bit like that which I believe it went out around 1981

UTV used to really roll out the regional series - especially studio-based entertainment series ("Kelly", "All Mixed Up", the dreaded "School Around the Corner") - until 2005; now you'd be hard pushed to see *anything* that isn't UTV Live.


School Around the Corner was an RTÉ format originally (a quite old one too, the original Paddy Crosbie series ran originally on Radio Éireann and then transferred to Telefis Éireann from 1962-1967). The 1990s revival with Gerry Ryan started on RTÉ and then became an RTÉ/UTV joint commission featuring schools on both sides of the border. Then when RTÉ dropped it, UTV continued to commission it from Tyrone Productions and Frank Mitchell took over, whereupon it seems to have run for years and years (they must have got to every school in Northern Ireland eventually...)
