Catch up on ITV News on Channel. [5] In the franchise round, Channel bid £1,000 (the lowest bid accepted) and was out-bid by challenge consortium CI3. When the celebrity idents came Channel used a variation, where the left side of the screen was taken up by its logo. [19], In the early 1990s Channel aired its first computer generated ident, featuring the CTV logo, initially silver but turned gold by two sideways flashes, falling backwards onto the gradiented blue background. It was the only ITV company to take the network branding without being a part of ITV plc. [15] Following ITV's 2013 rebrand, Channel's presentation and the title of its news programme have been brought into line with the other ITV regions, although sporadic non-news programming remains. Channel used the generic look, albeit with its own soundtrack, until 2002. A timeshift channel, ITV +1, is available on Freeview, Sky, ITV Channel Television, previously Channel Television, is a British television station which has served as the ITV contractor for the Channel Islands since 1962. [3] While Channel did survive the 1968 strike, it was badly affected by the Three-Day Week of 1973-4 which restricted the hours of television stations to save electricity. The current legal company is "Channel Television Holdings Ltd".
[3][6] Channel had won the right to continue broadcasting beyond 1993.
For instance, Channel had to miss over 100 episodes of The Young Doctors, the first nine episodes of Prisoner Cell Block H which had been screened on TVS in 1985, and it had to re-show 60 episodes of Sons and Daughters as TVS was behind TSW. All local programmes were being made in colour by the following year with Channel donating all of its old cameras to local museums. Channel's night time schedule from that point onwards always simulcast the service seen on TVS and its successor Meridian. "ITV Channel" redirects here. Until November 2011, Channel Television was one of four ITV companies independent from ITV plc alongside the two STV regions in Scotland and UTV in Northern Ireland. Unlike all other regional companies owned by ITV plc, it is not listed on www.companieshouse.gov.uk as a ", the large ITV strike that blacked out the rest of the network in August–October 1979, "Channel TV criticises ITV's double compliance decision", "JERSEY ORDER IN COUNCIL 1/1962 "TELEVISION ACT, 1954 (CHANNEL ISLANDS) ORDER, 1961, "Legal threats follow biggest ITV shake-up", "Analysis: Ofcom's regional news proposals", ITV’s Ant and Dec vote-rigging fine to be ‘derisory’, "Channel Television to be sold to ITV plc", "ITV completes Channel Television takeover", "Jersey's Radio & Television Industry 1922 - 2002", The Years of Channel Television press release, The Ident Gallery - Channel Television Current Idents (2011), Channel Islands Occupation Society (CIOS), List of semi-national / regional analogue and digital radio stations, Edinburgh International Television Festival, Culture, Media, and Sport Select Committee, Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, British Academy of Film and Television Arts, Broadcasting, Entertainment, Cinematograph and Theatre Union, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=ITV_Channel_Television&oldid=971655124, Television channels and stations established in 1962, Articles with unsourced statements from August 2015, Articles with unsourced statements from July 2013, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License, This page was last edited on 7 August 2020, at 12:52. As the company expanded, Channel moved into larger facilities in 1988 at La Pouquelaye, converted from the former offices of Rediffusion's Jersey operation. Although Channel made little for the ITV network it did contribute to a number of roadshow and anthology series which were collaboratively produced in a number of the smaller TV regions, such as Highway. When Carlton and Granada (which by then also included the United News and Media franchises) merged to form ITV plc in 2004, Channel remained separate from this new merger. [14] Although not announced, the deal was thought to have been worth at least £10 million. The network contains a variety of programming, such as entertainment, dramas, documentaries, news, films and sport. This article is about the ITV franchise in the Channel Islands.
You can watch live and on-demand British TV shows on ITV1, ITV2, ITV3, CITV, and ITVBe. The solution was the construction of a microwave relay station on the northern island of Alderney that would connect with another ITV station, initially Westward Television. ITV Hub is geo-restricted outside UK.
[3] However, Channel managed to escape the large ITV strike that blacked out the rest of the network in August–October 1979, on the same understanding as before. [19], The first colour ident used by Channel involved a striped CTV, which would serve as the station logo until 1999.
On 18 May 2008, The Sunday Times newspaper reported that ITV plc was using Channel's compliance role as a loophole, enabling it to lessen a possible fine for breaching Ofcom regulations during the 2005 British Comedy Awards. For the national television channel, see, "Channel Television" redirects here.
In 1983, Channel in Guernsey moved again to larger facilities at St George's Esplanade, from where Channel Report was presented on a regular basis. It served the smallest population of any ITV station with only around 150,000 people in 54,000 households.
The improvements kept the theme and repositioned the logo, changed the background to a navy blue, made the logo itself bigger and gold throughout and, most noticeably, improved the music making it less dramatic and giving it a softer feel.[19].
[3][3][16][17] Channel moved to its current, smaller premises at Castle Quay in June 2015. ITV is available online via ITV Hub. Channel Television currently operates two studios: the Jersey headquarters at Castle Quay on the St Helier waterfront and a Guernsey studio at Television House in Bulwer Avenue in St. Sampson, a building shared with BBC Radio Guernsey. [notes 1], Until the takeover by ITV plc, Channel Television also had a responsibility to ensure independent productions for ITV complied with the regulator Ofcom's broadcasting rules. In 2011, Channel Television was bought from the Yattendon Group by ITV plc. [5] This process was further complicated by a quality threshold, in which a higher bidder could be disqualified for having a poor business plan or if its high bid would result in a lack of funds for the programmes themselves. The ITV network was launched in 1955, a federal network of fifteen regional companies granted franchises either solely on a geographical basis or also on a weekday/weekend split basis. Both during this period and before, Channel used an on-air clock. The size of Channel's audience made the station initially vulnerable to any disputes and disturbances to the ITV network as a whole. This look, based on the theme of hearts, also provided Channel with a new logo, featuring a globe with the Channel Islands on it being orbited by two comets whose trails make a heart shape.
[3] However, there was to be a change of franchise in the South West of England with Westward being replaced by Television South West (TSW), requiring a new agreement with TSW. Channel also made advances during this period to enhance its service.
[3][5] CI3, formed in part of ex-Channel employees, bid £102,000, but was disqualified as it failed to pass the quality threshold. These idents also use music from the original emotion idents rather than the updated jingle and music. [3], In 1996, Channel began a subtitling service for its local programmes.
[9], Despite being a small station, Channel took on a role in ensuring that ITV's independently produced programmes complied with the UK's guidelines and laws. It is based in Jersey and broadcasts regional programme for insertion into the network ITV schedule.
[3] Channel managed to provide a service based mainly on films, imports, extended local news coverage and regional programming, with the biggest problem coming from difficulties in transporting film to the Jersey studios.
[10] For this breach, Ofcom fined the broadcaster, which was worked out as a maximum of 5% of the offending broadcaster's advertising revenue. [3] Just before the 1979 ITV strike began, Channel became only the second TV station in Europe to introduce electronic news-gathering (ENG) to its local news operation (BBC1 had used ENG for London-originated news since at least 1978), ending the use of film.[3].
Initially, the La Pouquelaye centre housed two production studios (the smaller studio B was latterly converted into offices) and a continuity studio, later used exclusively for Puffin's Pla(i)ce. ITV Hub - the new home of ITV Player, ITV on demand and live TV. Until November 2011, Channel Television was one of four ITV companies independent from ITV plc alongside the two STV regions in Scotland and UTV in Northern Ireland. While the branding was very similar to regions owned by ITV plc Channel Television used an older ITV1 logo with white letters on its idents supplemented by the wording 'Channel Television' and pre-recorded local continuity announcements are used at key junctions - including prior to national and regional news and on the handover from ITV Breakfast at 9.25am. This ident lasted until colour came to the region in the mid-1970s with only one slight variation in the positioning of the channel name.
However, as the programme was independently produced Channel is seen as the offending broadcaster for not ensuring compliance, despite Channel having no role in commissioning the programme. [19], In late 2004 Channel used idents of scenes from around the Channel Islands, with the logo in a stripe down the left side of the screen. ITV is a free UK TV station with content such as Love Island, Coronation Street, Downton Abbey available for streaming. Channel kept the clock up to 2002, using it to introduce news and, more unusually, announce the local temperature and tide times prior to the following programme (something not seen elsewhere in the ITV network).
