Let's face it, TVS did the opposite of what their predessesors, Southern, did.

Southern's farewell was like going to a funeral. At least TVS bowed out with style

@@woking1970I was born in 1987 but had I been around for when Southern were about to be replaced by TVS, I would’ve tuned into Southern’s farewell broadcast to make fun of them for a bit, before turning over to the BBC for whatever they did for New Year on that occasion!
Notice how those that lost their franchise had the letter 'T' at the beginning of their names. Thames, TSW, TV-AM and TVS.

Tyne Tees Television could have join the list, that begin with T, but with three T's
Firstly, TVS paid some extremely stupid people who told them to bid nearly £60million a year but none of those franchises were fair. The money TVS invested into those Maidstone studios and then they were only on air for just under 11 years. It was the same with Central - there was never a need for a massive studio complex in Nottingham when a news centre was all it ever needed
How good natured compared to Southern's TV's closedown show.
Its just dawned on me, Fred Dinenage is a jinx!😂

HOW!? (See what I did there?) 🙂
See you on the otherside Fred Dinage 2:35 as you survive 3 ITV local South Franchises, Southern Television South and Meridian, I spent my life travelling down South from the East of England during trip to the Isle of Wight staying in a Holiday Caravan with family during school holiday in the 1980's, i watch Southern Television South and plus Meridian at my ex girlfriend place in Kent in early 2000's and now i can pick up Meridian tv in HD from Sandy Heath transmitter in Bedfordshire thanks to Digital Morden Freeview television techonolgy.
TVS was a brilliant company and are much-missed. Thank goodness their old Maidstone Studios have survived and are being well-run.
Why does she mention Meridian covering the Channel Islands at 5:28 ?
