ITV2 - Launch, Monday 7th December 1998

Ойын-сауық

This clip sees the opening couple of minutes of ITV2, presented by Gabby Yorath and Vinne Jones with a feat of ITV celebrities from the time. Also look out for the gigantic DOG, on TV you can't see all of it.
The channel was only available on Cable & Wireless and On Digital where it was available in 16:9 mode, on CWC we had to bear 4:3, at times that didn't go to plan.
Apparently the ratings for this programme at the time were only 700 I remember.

    By coincidence, ITV2's launch took place on the same evening that the last-ever edition of World in Action was broadcast on ITV(1). Make of that what you will.

    That song It Takes Two was also used in the American Dad! episode 'Twinanigans' - which had just aired on ITV2 at 9:30PM on Monday 30th March 2020!

    Good video, hard to believe that it's nearly 10 years ago though! ITV2 did struggle for it's first few years though, as ratings were quite low, mainly due to their refusal to join Sky Digital. Once "On Digital" started to go wrong, it was funny that ITV then launched both ITV1/2 on Sky. Quite ironic that after it did launch on Sky, ITV2 fast became one of the most popular digital channels, whereas it's launch was only watched by 700 viewers!

    ITV2 used to be crap shit - current affairs, and then omnibus editions of soaps already on the main ITV channel back then. But now, we get ALL the good stuff like Love Island, Family Guy, American Dad, etc. So, as of 2017, we have entertainment, and ALL current affairs programming is now back in the hands of all-news channels.
