On 8 July @AndyPlumb4 libelled me by alleging that I was the BBC presenter at the heart of a story in The Sun that day. He has now acknowledged that he was wrong, and has apologised. At my request, he has also agreed to pay £1,000 to @mndassoc rather than paying damages. pic.twitter.com/JAG4nfR9xu

Although the CITV brand hasn’t come to an end as most expected - the new ITV2 breakfast slot has retained the CITV branding.

What do they plan on doing with the channel?
Wasn’t it a timeshare with ITV4? Maybe it’ll expand?
Never mind
ITV hasn’t yet confirmed what will fill CITV’s broadcast capacity on Freeview. CITV currently timeshares bandwidth with ITV3+1.

Pick is to be relaunched to Sky Mix, swapping channel placements with Sky Arts in the process. Pick was previously Sky 3, while the name Sky Mix has been used in one of Sky’s many attempts in revamping Sky 2, now Sky Replay, in the mid-2000s.

Holly Willoughby has now quit This Morning after the events of the last week saw her placed under police protection on Thursday and a man charged with plotting to kidnap and conspiracy to murder on Friday.
I think regardless of peoples opinions on Holly not nice seeing her leave in such circumstances.
ITV didn’t appoint anyone to replace Phillip, instead opting to use the existing team with the addition of Craig Doyle, who basically ended up doing a couple of days at a time with Holly. Was a feeling they didn’t want to give someone the lead presenting role only to have Holly quit soon after, as in those circumstances they’d likely want Alison and Dermot to switch from once a week to leading the show - though whether Dermot especially is keen to do that remains to be seen. If they do suspect we may see a 3/2 rather than 4/1 split with Craig and Josie doing the back end of the week and the holidays too.
