ITV HTV IDENTS

ITV Wales and West, previously known as Harlech Television (HTV), refers to the Independent Television franchise area until 31 December 2013, licensed to a broadcaster by the regulator Ofcom.[1]

There is no channel, past or present, named "ITV Wales and West". The licence relates to a 'dual region', meaning that the franchise area was divided into two regions, each of which must be served by distinct and separate ITV programme services as more fully defined within the licence. Today, those services are known as ITV Cymru Wales and ITV West Country (since ITV West and ITV Westcountry merged into a single region). They are provided by ITV plc which owns and operates the two services through its subsidiary ITV Broadcasting Ltd.

From January 2014, the dual-region licence was split in two, with ITV Cymru Wales for Wales and ITV West Country covering the West of England. Both licences remain held by ITV Broadcasting Ltd and the legal names of the former HTV companies have not yet been changed again.[2]

The National Library of Wales archives now store 200,000 ITV (HTV) film and video items dating from 1958.[3]

Thank you.
A bit late to the party but the HTV WEST waterfall or aerial as someone called it ident brought a big smile and a shiver down my spine.
That last ITV compilation of sights and sounds was almost enough to forgive the homogenisation. Almost.
Thank you.
