What is the plan for STV? Seriously, as I don’t see it. I know ITV has a plan, it still has a long term future in some capacity, but part of me thinks they just want to run STV into the ground, let ITV pick up the TV business for a pittance and STV bugger off with the new fangled radio station.

The Border TV clips added are as ever fascinating. Random captions supplied by other regions along with birthday greetings being read out of vision.
What do we have for you that is new today?
A BP advert for a competition to win a walk-on part in Dallas (won by Jeanette Hynes)?
Tom Baker advertising BT?
How do you eat your Creme Egg?

The era when every genre of ITV programming had to have its own ident to make the brand look cool.
I’m sure there was an ident in the previous set with Harry Hill and John Suchet. Not sure who signed that one off.

When did Boots stop selling music and videos? This must be near the end of it. I had it in my head it was earlier, but I have memories of larger Boots stores having gaps where music and videos used to be along with domestic appliances.

Just remember the time when it was announced Setanta lost the rights to the PL, it pretty much died instantly. Not saying this will happen to TNT, but you can’t charge a premium amount for 1x PL game a week, some FA Cup, a bit of rugby and MotoGP. At least Setanta was promoted as a cheaper option.
TNT is cooked. BT exited at the right time.
Sky grab the Europa / Conference League rights from TNT (four-year deal starting from 2027)
Somewhere somehow, Ally McCoist’s agent starting to panic.
