citadel wash colors

At 06:00 on Friday 8 May 2015, ITV's breakfast programme Good Morning Britain aired their first election coverage special on ITV, Good Morning Britain having only launched in the spring of 2014. Dermot Murnaghan, Sonia Ruseler and Julia Somerville acted as relief newscasters until 1995, when Murnaghan and Somerville became the bulletin's regular newscasters. Stewart and Somerville were again present for ITV's 1997 coverage of the John Major-Tony Blair election – aptly titled Election 97 – with Jonathan Dimbleby as the anchor. [25] In 2013 proposals were approved by Ofcom that reversed the 2009 consolidation of ITV Meridian's regional news programmes, resulting in the reinstatement of the three sub-regions (South, East and Thames Valley). In 1991, ITN moved into its new building at Gray's Inn Road, London (previously owned by The Sunday Times). The ITN name was dropped from the start of bulletins and, in 2001, from reporter sign-offs. There have been over 70 RTS awards for both domestic and international coverage, with the first coming for the 1969 Apollo moon landing. As part of the revamp, the ITV News at Ten was axed due to low ratings and replaced with the News at Ten Thirty, hosted once again by McDonald (from Monday-Thursday), and by Mark Austin on Fridays. Different variations on the theme music distinguished the main bulletins. Drama became a successful genre for the station, with Peter Kosminsky's No Child of Mine, tackling the emotionally difficult subject of child abuse, winning Meridian a BAFTA award. In 1989, Somerville left the programme to become a main presenter of News at Ten, leaving Suchet to become the main lunchtime newscaster – the programme was revamped once more. In April 2007 ITN announced that ITV had awarded it a 6-year contract to produce ITV News, at a cost of £250 million. ITN's regular newscasting team in the 1980s included Alastair Burnet, Sandy Gall, Leonard Parkin, Alastair Stewart, Trevor McDonald, Julia Somerville, Carol Barnes, Fiona Armstrong, John Suchet, Nicholas Owen, and a host of well-known reporters and correspondents. However, the logo was completely removed in 2004, last seen at the start of the late-night weather forecast on 5 December 2004. and viewers soon switched to the BBC. It includes the principal University library – the Bodleian Library – which has been a legal deposit library for 400 years; as well as 30 libraries across Oxford including major research libraries and faculty, department and institute libraries. Since 2004, ITV plc's 40% stake in ITN has been held as part of (and the company's ITV News operations integrated into) the ITV News Group. Meridian for a while managed to retain some identity by featuring their (sun/moon face) logo on the local weather forecast. There were special election-themed editions of the Tonight programme presented by ITN reporters and newscasters. [10] It was also revealed that, following his successful stint as presenter of Election Night Live: America Decides in 2008, Stewart was to present the ITN/ITV coverage of the UK general election in 2010. The original ITN logo, featuring a large "T" flanked either side by "I" and "N" (all encased within an outlined circle), was used from 1955 up to 1970. These regions were: The services remained without major modification until 2001 when the Newbury complex was closed and the Meridian West studio operation was moved to the Southampton headquarters; Newsgathering remained the same as previously. Breaking News & Views from Citizen Reporters World Wide: Welcome! Coverage started at 9:55 pm and aired through the night, handing over once again to Good Morning Britain at 6.00m, and resuming coverage from 9:25 am with Julie Etchingham anchoring the coverage through Friday.[21][22]. The move was due to the cancellation of the lease at its former Whiteley premises.[33]. When the company moved to Whiteley in 2004, presentation of all three editions of Meridian Tonight moved with the company, resulting in the closure of the New Hythe studio base, although newsgathering in the south-east was unaffected as journalists and reporters moved back to the Maidstone Studios. Under cost-cutting plans announced by ITV in September 2007 and agreed to by the UK's broadcasting regulator Ofcom in October 2008, the region's three sub-regions would be replaced with one programme. The other is used for weather forecasts for the three sub-regions. On 23 July 2013, proposals to reintroduce some elements of the sub-regional services were approved by Ofcom. News at Ten underwent a revamp on 9 November 1992 after the departures of newscasters Alastair Burnet (in August 1991) and Sandy Gall (in early 1992, though he did remain at ITN filing special war reports for News at Ten). On 16 January 2006, to reflect the launch of the new ITV logo, ITV News revamped with a teal-coloured look. The ITN name and logo is now only seen on the production slide, and is only used in ITV bulletins when referring to footage shot by ITN camera teams working for other clients (for example: the ITN name is used when both News at Ten and Channel 4 News broadcast the same piece of footage). On 2 February 2004, ITV News unveiled a £1 million virtual studio, with a rounded green screen (the set was nicknamed the "Theatre of News") for presenters to stand up in front of and present graphics to viewers. News at Ten was nominated for the award in the RTS Journalism Awards 2007/2008, but lost out to the BBC News at 10. In 2013, following a network wide rebrand of ITV, the long-standing Meridian Tonight brand was retired and replaced by ITV News Meridian. On 16 November 2012 it was announced ITV News would rebrand in January 2013. The rest of the UK had regular regional news opt outs from their own local ITV News programmes during the overnight coverage on ITV. ITV Meridian was formed as Meridian Broadcasting in 1991. ITV executives, however, were sceptical of that idea, because it was thought that viewers would not want a full 30 minutes of news every Monday to Friday (there had only been one half-hour news programme in Britain previously – BBC2's Newsroom, launched in 1964). Tapper and Bash will each anchor two Sundays a month, beginning January 24th. [38] However, even this did not last, and only a few years later these regional idents were dropped. As a result, ITV News Meridian now also produces separate breakfast, lunchtime and weekend bulletins for the South and South East with opt-outs within the main 6pm programme extended slightly to 20 minutes. In 2007, ITV plc's newly appointed chairman Michael Grade was reported as saying that the axing of the original News at Ten was "the worst mistake ITV ever made";[4] not long afterwards, plans were made for the famous bulletin to return to ITV. The resulting company owned the Daily Express newspaper, Meridian Broadcasting, Anglia Television, and a large shareholding (through the Yorkshire Post) in Yorkshire Tyne Tees Television, the owners of Yorkshire Television and Tyne Tees Television. The famous footage of emaciated men behind barbed wire went round the world and helped change the course of the conflict in Bosnia. As part of these plans, which were approved by Ofcom in 2008, the three editions of the news programme Meridian Tonight were replaced with a single edition with a pre-recorded opt out for either the South or South East of the region. Political Editor Tom Bradby and Senior Political Correspondent Chris Ship provided regular updates, and a team of dedicated reporters gave results as they were counted around the country. Independent Television News (ITN) was founded to provide news bulletins for the network in 1955, and has since continued to produce all news programmes on ITV.The channel's news coverage has won awards from the Royal Television Society, Emmy Awards and BAFTAs. First Report was moved to 13:00 and retitled News at One in 1976; Leonard Parkin and Peter Sissons alternated in the presenter's chair. Julia Somerville joined ITN from the BBC's Nine O'Clock News to host the new programme, with John Suchet and Jon Snow acting as relief presenters. Coverage of the aforementioned Mozambique floods in 2000 also won an Emmy award. She has also presented Breakfast Time, Songs of Praise, South Today and ITV's Meridian Tonight. The programme lasted until March 1992 when it was renamed and relaunched, in line with other ITN bulletins. [9] This was confirmed when, on 9 February 2009, ITN refreshed ITV News to bring it more in line with the News at Ten studio set. In 2007, The Guardian reported that ITV planned to take its news output "back to basics" by paring back graphics and having newscasters adopt a more formal style of presenting from behind the desk instead of standing up. The famous theme tune was re-arranged by Hewson and re-recorded in a slightly higher pitch but the timpani and chimes remained. With the outbreak of warfare in Iraq in 2003, ITV replaced the ITV News at Ten with a special 45-minute-long ITV News at Nine every Monday to Friday, hosted by Trevor McDonald in Kuwait City and John Suchet in the ITV News studio in London. [4] Meridian Broadcasting bid £36.5 million for the franchise, lower than TVS's bid of £59.8 million;[6] however, the bid made by TVS was rejected following an unsatisfactory business plan. A newly composed piece music called 'News Centre' was introduced, which incorporated only a few elements of 'The Awakening', the previous ITV News theme. In February 2009, ITV News bulletins were refreshed to be more cohesive with the branding and look of News at Ten, with the studio featuring a VR view of London and an outline of the Big Ben clockface filling the "theatre of news" screen. We’re on a journey to solve and democratize artificial intelligence through natural language. [8][38][39] The unusual logo design was reportedly inspired by maritime images (the sun/moon face is a recurring feature on compasses, sextants and other nautical artefacts used in the navigation of ships), appropriately reflecting the south's long seafaring history. Election 92 was anchored by Jon Snow, with Alastair Stewart providing graphical commentary and Julia Somerville assisting with regular news summaries. Nina Hossain presented live from the "Opinion Room" at ITN where journalists, bloggers, politicians and experts gave their view on the results of the election. In 1982, it was finally replaced with a synthesised alternative. Rageh Omaar is International Affairs Editor, James Mates acts as Europe Editor, and there arise a dedicated team of news correspondents. However, "Big Ben" hadn't gone entirely – a clockface was retained as part of ITV News' studio design from 2009 to 2013; and the clock tower was seen again in the ITV News opening sequences from 2013. Pan-regional bulletins including morning ones during Daybreak, which are branded Daybreak Meridian News, are also used in the region. The ITV Evening News was extended to 60 minutes, and various ITV news specials ran throughout the schedules. Alastair Stewart was the moderator for The First Election Debate, the first ever debate between leaders of political parties in the United Kingdom, transmitted on 15 April between 20:30 and 22:00. The ITV News Group also comprises the ITV regions in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands, as well as ITV Sport. In the ITV franchise auction of 1991, Meridian Broadcasting faced three other opponents in gaining the franchise, including the incumbent Television South and bids from Carlton Communications and CPV-TV. The 2015 UK general election was held on Thursday 7 May 2015. The plans resulted in over half of Meridian's existing staff being made redundant; all employees wishing to remain with the company were obliged to re-apply for jobs. Dimbleby returned for Election 2001 and Election 2005, aided both times by ITV News' political editors John Sergeant (in 2001) and Nick Robinson (in 2005) and a team of correspondents and newscasters around the country at polling stations. The "bongs" were originally introduced for News at Ten in 1967; the other ITN bulletins used different studio designs, individual graphic sets and individual music. Jib camera pans across the studio replaced the previous title sequence; these shots were pre-recorded 10 to 15 minutes before transmission, because it is a difficult shot to achieve and cannot be done if other studio cameras are already in place. In addition to Meridian's Southampton headquarters, the company operated other studios and news bureaux. Initially, the new-look News at Ten was presented from the same studio as the Early Evening News, adjacent to the ITV newsroom. The flagship ITV News at Ten has won numerous BAFTA awards, and also being named "RTS News Programme of the Year" in 2011 and 2015. [20] Some staff opted for voluntary redundancy and many others have been left without jobs. News at Ten's coverage of the earthquake also won the International Emmy award for News Coverage in September 2009. Mark Austin and Katie Derham continued the ITN coverage following GMTV: Election 2010 returned between 09:25 and 10:50. As its parent company MAI became a significant shareholder in Channel 5, Meridian supplied a number of the new channel's programmes for the network such as sports programme Turnstyle, youth programme The Mag and children's show Havakazoo. ITN has, like the BBC, run special through-the-night coverage on the day of general elections in Britain and on the day of presidential elections in the United States since its formation in 1955. On 8 March 1999, all ITN programmes were rebranded under the name ITV News. The company consisted of a consortium between Mills & Allen International (MAI), Selectv (15%) and Central Independent Television (20%), the latter of whom advised the consortium. BibleThe Bible is a collection of religious texts or scriptures sacred to Christians, Jews, Samaritans, Rastafari and others. Despite the 2008 return of News at Ten, the other bulletins continued to use the "bongs". The unique, probing reporting style of Robin Day caused shock among politicians, finding themselves questioned continually for information – this had never been the case with the BBC. When Meridian launched, it divided its news operations into three separate sub regions. As the ITV network consolidated from the mid 1990s onwards, ITN branding of news programmes was eventually dropped on 8 March 1999 following the introduction of the ITV News brand. But it’s never been harder to know what and who to trust, and never easier to be misled. Since the creation of ITV plc in 2004 all regional news programmes in these regions have taken on a unified look and appearance on screen while structurally the merger has enabled ITV to create the ITV News Group consisting of ITN's national news service and the regional services provided by ITV plc and STV Group. This closed in 2001, when the studio was moved to Southampton. From this year, ITN news programmes revamped and moved to be presented from the ITV newsroom, foremostly to show the impressive atrium in the newly purchased headquarters – with the exception of the lunchtime programme which continued with its own studio and music, but took on elements of the new revamp – such as the serif font style newly introduced for ITN bulletins. News at 545 was replaced by the News at 540 in 1989 (following the introduction of the ITV National Weather forecast), and a new presenting team was formed comprising Carol Barnes, Nicholas Owen, Trevor McDonald, Fiona Armstrong, and Alastair Stewart. The UK general election campaign of 2010 was covered by ITV under the banner Campaign 2010, prominent in all its news and current affairs programming. Later, the same production team tackled vicious childhood bullying in Walking on the Moon. [26] A pan-regional political programme, The Last Word, is also broadcast every month. [33], Over the weekend of 22–23 October 2011, ITV Meridian moved to new premises in Fusion Three, on the same business park at Whiteley and across the road from its previous office. Meridian did put these studios to good use in the future; on some occasions, Meridian would hire its studios out to the independent companies to use for the programmes, and, under the ownership of United News & Media, some Channel 5 programmes were made there. The teal-coloured opening titles and stings remained unchanged. The current on-screen journalists at ITV News are divided into international correspondents, home affairs correspondents, political correspondents (headed by political editor Robert Peston), specialist correspondents (covering sport, media and arts, science and medicine, consumer affairs, social affairs, economic, and diplomatic affairs. GMTV dedicated its entire 7 May programme to the Election, with contributions from ITV newscasters Etchingham, Nightingale and James Mates. Since then BAFTA has gone on to present ITN with a total of 26 awards, for coverage on ITV ranging from Francis Chichester's home-coming in 1967 to the Northern Ireland troubles, the Iranian Embassy siege, wars in the Falklands, Lebanon and the Gulf, the Zeebrugge ferry disaster, the discovery of the Serb camps, the genocide in Rwanda, the storming of the Moscow White House, and the conflict in former Yugoslavia. [16][17][18], The then Prime Minister Theresa May called a snap general election for Thursday 8 June 2017. The music was remixed to become slightly 'heavier', and new opening titles were made based around the famous Big Ben clock face (see right). — ITV News Meridian (@itvmeridian) March 17, 2020. ITN's head newscasters – Alastair Burnet, Andrew Gardner, and George Ffitch – presented the first News at Ten, and the bulletin became so popular with viewers that it was kept in the schedules after its initial 13 weeks. [8][38][39] This look was in use until October 2002 when ITV1 in England and Wales abandoned local continuity and idents. In November 2006, the teal-colours of the name-strap designs and other on-screen graphics – including the atrium design – were replaced with blue. On 16 October 1972, a twenty-minute lunchtime bulletin was introduced into the ITV schedule – First Report, which was hosted by Robert Kee and ran from 12:40 to 13:00. [14] On 27 November 2012 it was understood the ITV News at 5:30 would be axed, in favour of delivering content for itv.com and creating a new foreign affairs unit. [9], Shortly after, MAI began to expand by buying Anglia Television, the ITV franchise for the east of England, in 1994. A source at the country’s top supermarket told Reuters, “it’s getting worse.” Sainsbury’s, the second-largest chain of supermarkets in the UK, had to place restrictions on certain products to keep store shelves stocked. News at 540 was renamed the Early Evening News on 2 March 1992 and presented from the ITV newsroom adjacent to the ITN atrium. [35], On 4 December 2006, the Meridian West and Central South sub regions were merged to form the non-broadcast region ITV Thames Valley. On 1 February 2005, it was replaced with a generic "ITV Meridian" logo, the official name of the franchise. Cashing in on the 1999 loss of News at Ten, BBC director-general Greg Dyke announced that the Nine O'Clock News would be moved to 22:00. Also in 2001, the ITN name was removed from the voiceovers at the start of bulletins and reporter name-checks.

Despite this move not being uncommon in the broadcasting industry, some considered the move controversial, particularly as the Meridian South East programme would be presented 60 miles from the nearest part of the South East region and 160 miles from its furthest point. In 1993, graphics were relaunched to bring it in line with other ITN news bulletins. [4], On 2 December 2007, ITV News and the ITV regional newsrooms switched from the traditional 4:3 format to 16:9 widescreen.[8]. [26][27] The practice of broadcasting one programme live and pre-recording others, using the same presenting team and studio set, continues. In December 2010, the site was still lying empty after developer Oakdene fell into administration in 2009. From September 2014, however, Meridian's identity was revived by an announcement (including the sub-region) immediately prior to the evening edition of ITV Meridian News. The first Mission to the Moon programme aired at 22:35 on ITV on Wednesday 15 July and continued the following Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Monday (Friday in Scotland, on STV). Election 64 – The Result was hosted by Alastair Burnet, the fast-rising face of politics on ITV, and contained many visual gimmicks to keep the audience interested in the coverage. ITV News has the second-largest television news audience in the United Kingdom, second only to BBC News (and followed by other broadcasters such as Sky News, Channel 4 News and 5 News). They were joined in the studio by election analysts Professor Colin Rallings and Professor Jane Green. [5] Meridian Broadcasting intended to operate as a publisher broadcaster, meaning that the majority of programmes would be commissioned from independent producers rather than produced in house. Nations and regions news A specially made VR view of the ITN atrium now adorned the "Theatre of News" screen (an earlier version had been used for ITV's Election 2005 a year previously). United News & Media later agreed to buy Scottish Television's 20% stake in HTV[13] and on 28 June 1997, HTV was taken over fully by UNM for £370 million. Dana Bash has been named co-anchor of the network’s Sunday morning newsmaker show, now called State of the Union with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash. [3][4] Central Independent Television, along with Selectv, were instrumental in winning the franchise as a low bidder. UTV in Northern Ireland and STV in Scotland provided their own overnight coverage of the election results in their region from their main studios in Belfast and Glasgow, dipping in and out of the ITV news coverage during the night. Meridian's two-part production In the Name of Love in 1999 starred Tara Fitzgerald, Tim Dutton and Mark Strong, and was written by Sarah-Louise Hawkins and directed by Ferdinand Fairfax. The 2013 rebrand of ITV News saw the brand being extended to regional news programmes operated by ITV plc replacing the previous regional news titles. The original ITN theme tune was an excerpt of Non-Stop, a piece of light music composed by John Malcolm, used from 1955 up to 1982. Today, ITV Meridian operates from studios in Whiteley, Hampshire, producing regional news services for three sub-regions, covering the South Coast of England, the South East of England and the Thames Valley. Trevor McDonald became the sole newscaster of the programme. Tom Bradby and Julie Etchingham anchored ITV's coverage of the results from the main ITV News studio at ITN from 21:55 on Thursday 7 May and continued through the night until 06:00 on Friday 8 May 2015. A spokesman for BBC Radio 3 confirmed the appointment but declined to give any further details.[13]. In 1988, the programme returned to its original slot and once again became the News at One; the presenting line-up remained unchanged. "The Awakening" was re-arranged again in February 2004 as part of a major revamp of ITV News, and again in January 2006 with a further revamp of ITV News bulletins. [15] The new look brought forth another rearrangement of signature tune The Awakening, more direct than its predecessors, and a new opening sequence featuring "Big Ben" marking the time for its respective news programmes; it also saw the ITN logo removed entirely, the production slide instead being the ITV News logo with "ITN year" in small type underneath. In July 2009, to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the NASA moon landings, ITN produced five special 10-minute programmes for ITV titled Mission to the Moon – News from 1969. Additionally, Meridian originally opened and operated a new studio complex at Newbury for its Meridian West operation. The text "Independent Television News" was shown at the start of the sequence, followed by the individual words "NEWS", "at" and "TEN", which appeared in time to the title music. It appears in the form of an anthology, a compilation of texts of a variety of forms that are all linked by the belief that they are collectively revelations of God. This company is, along with most other regional companies owned by ITV plc, listed with Companies House as a "Dormant company". [7] However, ITN announced that the new budget meant it would have to cut staff despite already operating on a smaller budget than its two main rivals BBC News and Sky News. The 1974 general election results were presented under the title The Nation Decides by Peter Snow. John Tidmarsh – presenter on the BBC World Service programme Outlook from 1968 until 1998. Hornblower was a Sunday night success for the ITV network while another Sunday night favourite, Where the Heart Is, transferred production from Anglia Television to Meridian in 2002 – the station's last major contribution at a network level. In 1967, ITN editor Geoffrey Cox suggested launching a half-hour news bulletin for ITV, every weeknight. These regions were served by their version of news programme Meridian Tonight, presented by an individual team of presenters from a studio within the sub region. The studio contained a VR view over night-time London (with an outline of the Big Ben clockface superimposed on top), with dark blue and black being the primary colour scheme; VR glass 'sheets' also provided News at Ten logos on them. In August 2009, it was announced that after 16 years co-hosting London Tonight, Alastair Stewart was to leave the regional magazine programme to become the main co-anchor of the ITV Evening News. The station was launched at 12:00 am on 1 January 1993, replacing previous broadcaster Television South, and is owned and operated by ITV plc, under the licensee of ITV Broadcasting Limited.Meridian Broadcasting Ltd was one of several (but not all) ITV plc-owned … It was moved to 12:30, and appropriately became the News at 12:30. There was much opposition towards ITV from the viewing public, politicians such as Gerald Kaufman, former ITN faces including editor Nigel Ryan and newscaster Alastair Burnet, and some of ITN's then-current staff including political editor Michael Brunson. During Meridian's years as an independent broadcaster their on-screen idents typically featured a form-up of their logo. [26][27] However to maintain lower costs, the main half-hour programme at 6pm contains a minimum 20 minutes of regional news (10 minutes in the Thames Valley) and daily use of "shared content" from outside the region. Strike action was threatened as a result of the announcement.[21][22][23][24]. In 1991, the programme moved back to the 12:30 slot, but retained the studio setting. Mark Austin concentrates his energies on News at Ten but continues to present some editions of the 18:30 bulletin. Upon launch, the South East output came from The Maidstone Studios before moving to a purpose-built studio centre at New Hythe near Maidstone in Kent in 1994. Initially, all national news programmes on ITV carried ITN's own brand. ITV News also used the large space of the atrium at ITN headquarters in London, using it as the election results headquarters, with Robert Peston-based there. ITN was set up by the Independent Television Authority to provide a new type of news service for the upcoming commercial television service Independent Television (ITV). By the start of the year 2000, viewing figures for news programmes on ITV had dropped by about a million viewers due to the loss of the 22:00 bulletin. Its director is Michael Jermey, formerly a programme editor with ITN. In December 2009, ITV News at Ten won the award for Best National Television Programme from the Plain English Awards. [14], In 1999, plans emerged of a merger between UNM and rival Carlton Television;[15] however, these talks failed when it appeared that Meridian Broadcasting would have to be sold off as a condition of the deal. ITV News once again had Tom Bradby at the helm from 9:55 pm on ITV, using the same set design from the 2015 general election. Technology had also vastly improved. In 1995, all ITN programmes relaunched with a unified look, using blue colours (the corporate colour of ITN at the time). On 22 October 2009, ITV and ITN the course of the opt out segments be!
