- ITV plc operates as a British media company that holds 13 of the 15 regional television licences comprising the ITV network, the oldest and largest commercial terrestrial television network in the United Kingdom; it functions as a vertically integrated producer, broadcaster and streamer through two primary divisions, ITV Studios and Media & Entertainment (M&E). ITV Studios serves as a global content production and distribution business that creates, owns and exploits premium scripted and unscripted programming, including high-profile formats such as Britain's Got Talent, Love Island, I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! and The Voice, for broadcasters and platforms across the UK and international markets in 13 countries under 60 brands; M&E broadcasts via ad-supported linear channels encompassing flagship ITV1 (including regional services like ITV Granada, ITV London, ITV Tyne Tees, ITV Anglia, ITV Yorkshire, ITV Border, ITV Meridian, ITV Central, ITV West Country, ITV Wales & West and UTV), younger-skewing ITV2, drama repeats on ITV3, sports and action content on ITV4, gameshow repeats on ITV Quiz (launched June 2025), children's block CITV on ITV2, plus the free ad-supported streaming television service ITVX offering live events, archives, exclusives and premium subscription access to BritBox content. The company, founded in 2004 through the merger of Granada and Carlton and headquartered at ITV White City, 201 Wood Lane, London W12 7RU, United Kingdom, primarily targets UK audiences with entertainment, news, sports and factual programming while generating international revenues from Studios' format sales, finished tape distribution and global entertainment rights exploitation. Recent developments include the sale of its 50% stake in BritBox International to BBC Studios for £255 million, a multi-year distribution partnership with YouTube announced in Q4 2024 bringing extensive content hours to the platform, and ongoing talks as of November 2025 to divest the M&E division (encompassing TV channels and ITVX) to Comcast-owned Sky for approximately £1.6 billion while retaining ITV Studios; the company has also faced takeover interest, with Banijay exploring bids for ITV or its Studios arm in April 2025 and prior merger discussions involving RedBird IMI and All3Media earlier in the year.
