	Granada Television - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Granada Television was the British Independent Television (commercial television) contractor for the "North of England" weekday franchise from 1954 (started broadcasting in 1956) until 1968, and for the "Northwest England" all-week franchise since 1968.
		Granada is the only one of the original four ITA franchisees from 1954 which survived as a franchise holder into the twenty-first century, until its merger in 2003 into ITV plc.
		Granada did not produce light entertainment extravaganzas of its own, but was quite happy to transmit those produced by its co-franchisees, but by the mid-1970s it was producing costume epics such as Brideshead Revisited, and from 1984 The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes.

		It is said he chose the name Granada for his cinema chain, and later for his television company, because its Spanish reference connoted sun-drenched gaiety and flamboyance, the qualities he sought to have associated with his entertainment establishments, which tended in the early days of cinema to be decorated in the Spanish baroque style.
		All the same, Granada and Bernstein were quick to overcome their reservations when the resulting Television Act of 1954 signalled the end of the BBC's monopoly and permitted private companies to apply for the first regional commercial franchises.
		Granada's evidence to the Pilkington Committee of Enquiry into Broadcasting in 1961, justified this decision thus: "The North and London were the two biggest regions.

		Granada is the only one of the original four ITA franchisees from 1954 which survived as a franchise holder into the twenty-first century.
		Granada's policy of regional identification was so successful that the ITA decided that all franchise contractors, large or small, should identify with their regions in this way -- this was a problem which was to dog ATV for the rest of its existence and be the direct cause of the company's demise.
