Note that the UHF area for Anglia is somewhat less further west than VHF. The sometimes expressed idea that this encroached into former North / Yorkshire areas is thus incorrect. Belmont was not attached in 1966 to the Northern region unlike the BBC probably because it would make it too large.

The ITA's chairmanship was a "retirement" job for Herbert Bowden in the gift of Harold Wilson. He'd turned down an offer to be BBC chairman & Charles Hill was moved sideways to achieve this. Sadly 1969 would be a poor year for ITV; extra costs from colour conversion & less ad income.

We’ve been watching some things on Talking Pictures which were originally shown on ITV and they’ve not only kept the idents, they’ve left the cue dots on.
I’ve been amusing Groupie by saying things like “stand by regions…” and “roll commercials” 😊

61 years ago today was Winston Churchill's state funeral. ITV's coverage involved ITN, Granada, ABC, ATV, Anglia, Southern, STV, TWW and Tyne Tees and was co-ordinated by Rediffusion.
Rediffusion published a booklet to commemorate ITV's work, and the late prime minister.
