Such a sad loss. The end of an era, and the beginning of the end for regional ITV. What have we got now? An alleged news programme that comes from Southampton, and covers from Dorset to Kent and up to Oxford! Yeah, that's really local telly. A terrible decision by the ITC to remove a truly great broadcaster.
Such a dignified and good humoured farewell edition of Coast to Coast. Mike Debens and Liz Wickham made a great presenting duo. True professionals and a regional news programme that hasn’t been surpassed in terms of quality. It’s been downhill ever since.

Poignant memories of one of the very best ITV regional broadcasters.

Who is the announcer
what would cause a network to just shutdown.
Mrs Thatcher that's what
