ATVLAND.productions are a group of enthusiastic individuals, brought together by a love of old television programmes and the companies who made them.

Our first documentary is all about the creation of one of the most powerful and recognised brands in ITV. ATV is still regarded as the entertainment company, formed in the 1950s as one of the first four ITV companies. Serving London and the Midlands, it soon became well known for high budget entertainment shows and dramas.

Throughout its’ time as an ITV contractor, ATV moved studios, lost London, but gained the Midlands all week, and then was forced to rebrand and become more ‘regional’. Central was born.

FROM ATVLAND IN COLOUR, starts at ATV’s original studios in Aston, through to the building of the new colour TV studios in Bridge Street. We will have in-depth interviews with many familiar faces including Shaw Taylor (Police 5), Debbie Shore (CITV, Miss ATV), Jane Rossington (Crossroads, Emergency Ward 10), Bob Carolgees (Tiswas) and many more.
