  • CITV, short for "Children's ITV" is a British children's TV station from ITV Digital Channels Ltd, a division of ITV plc. The channel is aimed at children under 12 years old, showing content from the current CITV library, as well as commissions and acquisitions. The CITV channel is an extension of the original afternoon children's programming block carried on the ITV channel. First called "Children's ITV", the block launched on 3 January 1983 at 15:30. Some years later (following the launch of "Children's BBC", and its subsequent rebranding to "CBBC"), it adopted the shorthand name "CITV". The CITV channel broadcasts 06:00 to 18:00, however the channel broadcasts a Teleshopping strand weekeday mornings between 06:00 and 06:30. The channel previously timeshared with ITV4 until 5 February 2008, until ITV4 expanded its broadcast hours to become a full 24 hour channel. As a consequence it moved to the Mux space on Freeview originally held by ABC1, however this move meant that viewers in Wales would no longer be able to receive CITV on Freeview. On Freeview in Wales, the off-air caption read as "CITV will no longer be available after 5 February". The channel launched on 11 March 2006 at 09:25 on Freeview, Homechoice (now known as Tiscali TV) and Telewest. It also launched on Sky Digital on 8 May 2006 and NTL on the 6 June. Additionally, the channel is simulcast on GMTV2 on weekdays between 06:00 and 09:25. NTL and Telewest are now both known as Virgin Media.
