Sorry, I didn't mean to suggest that at all - and of course none of us are in a position to be able to say for definite what might happen down the road.

Someone's obviously forgotten their TV Times... no announcement at all before The Chase.

And we now have a screensaver in place of the news promo... will the 6pm news even play out?

Wonderful service this!

Granada logo? You mean an ITV one?

^Wouldn't that be the generic ITV logo nowadays?

EDIT: haha, great minds think alike. Smile
Stuart, Footballer and Mr Kite gave kudos

There were no announcements all daytime yesterday either, just as before the refresh. Monday, it would seem, was a one off to have annos all day.

Sad (and, to be honest, a bit surprising) to see that legacy of the old UTV living on.

Yes, ITV Granada. Therefore the current Granada logo.

Thing is, UTV did generally have announcements, on ECPs (and also had intermittent prerecorded announcements before some programmes). So this, along with the absence of ECPs themselves, is a step back.
