ITV

ITV is a commercial TV network in the United Kingdom. Launched in 1955 as Independent Television under the auspices of the Independent Television Authority (ITA, then after the Sound Broadcasting Act 1972, Independent Broadcasting Authority, now Ofcom) to provide competition to the long established BBC,^[1] it is also the oldest commercial network in the UK. Since the passing of the Broadcasting Act 1990 its legal name has been Channel 3, to distinguish it from the other analogue channels at the time, namely BBC 1, BBC 2 and Channel 4. In part, the number 3 was assigned as television sets would usually be tuned so that the regional ITV station would be on the third button, with the other stations being allocated to the number within their name.

ITV is a network of television channels that operate regional television services as well as sharing programmes between each other to be displayed on the entire network. In recent years, several of these companies have merged so currently the fifteen franchises are in the hands of two companies.

INSTITUTION AND REGULATION

The ‘watershed’ is a well understood concept and audiences are concerned if they
believe programme content is ‘pushing the boundaries’ of what is generally accepted
close to the watershed. Audience research shows strong support and recognition for
the watershed on all television channels. The watershed plays a crucial role for
parents and carers with children aged 5 to 8 and trust in pre-watershed programming
is essential, particularly leading up to 1930. It is also important that the content of pre
watershed trails is appropriate for the time of broadcast.
