		Granada Television was the British ITV (commercial television) contractor for the "North of England" weekday franchise from 1954 (broadcasting began on May 3, 1956) until 1968, and for the "Northwest England" all-week franchise from 1968.
		Granada was the only one of the original four ITA franchisees from 1954 which survived as a franchise holder into the twenty-first century, until the merger of its parent company, Granada plc in 2004 into ITV plc.
		Granada Breeze, the daytime lifestyle channel, was broadcast from a custom-built conservatory studio in the grounds of the existing studios, but was the first channel to disappear, closing in 2002.

	Undoing the inevitable \| Inside TV
		Although the old system of network scheduling was often a stitch-up at the expense of the smaller companies, at least with five major companies pitching ideas and series, there was a greater variety of programming coming to the screen than there is at present, even if this meant that some series ended before their time.
		Eventually the Carlton and Granada franchise areas could carry their parent companies’ networks, with the regulator ensuring that non-digital viewers don’t lose out entirely by allowing some exchange of programmes between the two companies.
		Possibly the companies in these regions could become affiliates to one of the networks, retaining their independence, producing their own local programmes but taking the bulk of the network schedule.
