  • Yorkshire Television is the ITV contractor for the Yorkshire franchise. Up until 1974 this was primarily the three Ridings of Yorkshire and associated areas served by the Emley Moor television transmitter. Following a re-organisation in 1974 the transmission area was extended to include Humberside, Lincolnshire and parts of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and North and West Norfolk, served by the Belmont transmitter. The company was formed from a 'shotgun marriage' between two applicant groups in the 1967 franchise round, Telefusion Yorkshire Ltd and Yorkshire Independent Television, the former having large financial backing and the latter having the better plans (but fewer resources). It went on air on 29 July 1968 from purpose-built colour studios in Leeds, the first of their kind in Europe. It also has a smaller studio in Sheffield. The license for the Yorkshire franchise continues to be held by Yorkshire Television Limited, part of ITV plc. However on the 1st January 2007 and as a result of the restructuring of ITV, the company transferred its programme production business and Channel 3 broadcasting business to ITV Productions Limited and ITV Broadcasting Limited respectively. As a consequence Yorkshire Television Limited ceased to trade on the 1st January 2007.. (en)
