The way we were la la la. We left Birmingham just before the Handsworth riots, this made me cry. Anyone can see where the Central ident came from, it was the colour ATV. lol. I still have my accent so sound a bit like Benny even though I am 49. WE, used to be a community, into each other's houses. WHERE, did it all go so badly wrong?
0:24 ATV Television Was Founded In 1956 In Birmingham West Midlands In The United Kingdom. This Where Gerry Anderson's Captain Scarlet And The Mysterons Along With Stingray And Of Course Gerry Anderson's Thunderbirds The Original Series Where Made In The Late 1960's In The 20th Century. Thanks Mate. X
I agree. I grew up in the Tyne Tees region and can appreciate how important regional identity used to be, as reflected in our individual ITV stations. Bring back the old days :'(

The West Midlands didn't actually exist until 1974, Birmingham was in Warwickshire until then.
Oh Yeah Right. I've Might Go To Birmingham In Warwickshire England This Year. Thanks Christopher Hulse Mate. X
So, Angela Rippon wasn’t the first woman to read the news after all! ATV was a trailblazer a lighter news channel! 🙏🙏🙏
It's sad really considering what they've done to broadcasting in the Midlands
Not just the Midlands but every region.

Heh, amusing choice of ATV logo to use there for the first few seconds.

@@oneurope No this is the one they rushed with all the wrong dimensions when they hasterly had to change their name from ABC to ATV in 1955
