Goodbye, Grampian

STV logoToday marks an end of an era, as Grampian Television in Scotland is merged with Scottish Television and replaced as a brand with STV — and a logo that, it has to be said, brings to mind nothing more than the old British Steel one.

South of the border, we’ve become so used to everything becoming a homogenous, generic “ITV” brand that regional identity seems a dim and distant memory. Sad to say, it looks like the rest of the UK is following suit.

Thank goodness we’ve got the internet to store and share memories of the good times, when Anglia was represented by a silver knight on a horse, the word “Thames” rose up out of the, erm, Thames, and Central television had — well, a non-descripit white ball.

Happy times.
