It wasn't all that bad. To be honest, I like dual branding the best. Regional branding is good, but sometimes, because it is just one tiny company, the idents can look cheap (take a look at the CTV idents from the 90's) however, the Central idents were always good, and Yorkshire. Nationalized is boring, samey, cheap and crap, like the chav ITV1 we have today.
But with dual branding, you can have the regional branding and the stations name, telling you where you are and what channel it is.

They started in September 1989 but not across the whole ITV network - some regional stations such as TSW refused to use them. Within a year the other regions started to move away from the generic look to reintroduce their own idents.

@cupcakefairy87 One was made but never used.

How come Anglia didn't have a generic ident?

@Xxfancythat79xX Sorry, a criminally bad error on my part. I was getting majorly confused.

@wuzzlevideos no...TVS was Television South which was taken over by Meridian in the early 90s. Television South West (TSW) was taken over by Westcountry Television at the same time.

@tpirrules19 Thames carried this on as in 1988 all in-vision announcing in the daytime stopped across the network and also it would have been useful if each company had placed this under the ident in the same way that others do to alert people that programmes were being subtitled.

This Should've Been The 2010 Gneric Idents If ATV Still Was Here ToDay!
-
Noticed that the V in ITV identifies which region is broadcasting. Somehow the one for Scottish Television just doesn't look right/familiar.
