That's five, for a total of eleven. (ITV4+1 is only there for an hour in the morning)Just to add, ITVBe+1 is also only on for an hour in the morning. And their programming? Teleshopping. Why do ITV use these channels for basically hogging up a little bit of the Freeview EPG?
I think they’re basically squatting on those channel numbers Incase they hold value in the future or can acquire more bandwidth.
I’ll be honest, I got to 12 straight away, knowing they all had some form of +1 presence on Freeview. But you can see how with +1s/HD it was designed to catch them out.
I don’t quite know how the show works (is it a massive green screen, doubt it? Or do they edit out standard screens they’ve viewing on?) but when they unveiled the answer, it was all new logos which would’ve been introduced after they filmed this series.
