ITV1+1 soon?

[satandpcguy]

It looks like ITV1+1 will be launching soon.

New test channel have been appearing on the ITV transponders on Astra 2d.

There will not be all the ITV1 regions on there, but ITV1+1 will have 6 regional variations:

London
South East (encompassing Meridian and Anglia)
West (encompassing Wales & West and Westcountry)
Central
Yorkshire/Tyne Tees (encompassing Yorkshire and Tyne Tees)
Granada/Border (encompassing Granada and Border)

It was expected that ITV1+1 would be lanuched in January 2011, but perhaps it may launch earlier, intime for the festive period and create more advertising revenue for ITV.

New "channel idents" have appeared on 10891 H 22000 5/6 - although with no details or video, these are expected to become ITV1+1.
