STV OPT OUTS for Sat. 14th - Fri 20th May:-
On Sunday early afternoon it's JAK & EDDIE'S SCOTTISH KITCHEN with ITV showing Planet's Got Talent. Motorsport airs through the night on ITV, again no show on STV. Friday sees ANIMAL 99 air primetime STV 8-8.30pm with Barging Round Britain (Series 2, 5 of 6) continuing on ITV. Late night OPT OUTS this week include SCOTLAND TONIGHT Mon (ITV has River Monsters), TELESHOPPING Tue (ITV has Bargain Shop Wars), TELESHOPPING Wed (ITV has Motorsport) and SCOTLAND TONIGHT and RIVER MONSTERS Thur (ITV has Around The House and Las Vegas With Trevor McDonald). The "no show on STV" list (original screening month on ITV as stated) remains unchanged:- BARGING ROUND BRITAIN (Series 2, parts 1-6, April 2016), FURTHER TALES FROM NORTHUMBERLAND (Series 3, parts 1-8, Feb 2016), BRITAIN: AS SEEN ON ITV (Aug 2015), SUPERHOSPITAL (June), WILD EXMOOR (parts 3 & 4), BIG BOX LITTLE BOX, BRITAIN'S BUSIEST AIRPORT - HEATHROW (all May), WILD IRELAND (April & rptd. Aug), MORE TALES FROM NORTHUMBERLAND (Series 2, part 8, Feb 2015), SECRETS FROM THE SKY (Nov 2014), HOTEL IN THE CLOUDS (Nov & rptd. ITV3 Feb 2015). I'm still surprised Teleshopping is still going .... STV must need the income? I seen the new ad for STV News with Sean Batty - cringe! (the slow motion smile) really? Surprised he spoke about the app since he presents the weather! I have the app on my windows phone but does bug all for me....note to STV update your apps on all other formats than just one! |

I spotted the ad today for Heathrow - bad move STV or we expecting series 1 to magically appear at weekends for catchup? Oh wait ITV3 repeated it few months ago, so ITV has played STV's catchup!

At least it's not major dramas (Downton, Scott & Bailey, Whitechapel etc...) like it was a few years ago, but this "no show" policy is a nonsense. As you've said plenty of opportunity to add these programmes in before Teleshopping (around 12-1am), and the habit of starting/stopping series (although not just STV's preserve) is annoying.
![]() Air a show thats never been aired and go with it (I have never seen Heathrow programme but if its meeting the staff etc and not knowing what they do from series 1 its utterly pointless watching it!) As for the stop/start treatment - I am only aware that its US shows that do this - ITV don't even do it and thats their own programming but with STV it seems to be that way! Why? STV are doing no favours for themselves at all no matter the way you look at it. Opportunity between 11pm-1am to at least put on shows (not aired) but no they rather bail out for 12am for Teleshopping then their own After Midnight to later rejoin ITV for Jezza (or Nightscreen before hand). I understand that if there is no audience there but really? STV/Grampian were running full on 24/7 365 days without the Teleshopping in 90's/00s but to have that on baffles me - its more the same when you see MTV channels doing it these days but I guess channels are not making profits as they use to be or claim to be if they need Teleshopping on! |

I understand to a degree that even STV has to meet a Regional quota with their opt outs - but its just silliness at its best with this lot at STV.

The other "guilty" party is Channel 5, they regularly drop series or move them if not performing in the ratings. But with STV the stop/start/moves seem to be related to other programmes starting and a lack of forward planning.
As this is STV I just give up on waiting on anything we miss if its on ITV - its just shambolic lets be honest (casing point proves Heathrow Series 2 airing at same time as ITV but series 1 has never aired), makes you wonder if viewers of STV have been complaining about the lack of shows ie friends have spoken about this show down south and up here its more of "oh never seen that on STV" - complaints go in they acknowledge it and say something "airing series 2!", to then keep the STV public happy? It beggars belief as to why STV just do stupid opt outs let alone run films with ITV together! As mentioned previously 11pm-4am, there is a block that could be used if they scrap teleshopping, after midnight - put the programmes on at least and let the viewers view it on their STV Player (they keep banging on about) but I doubt this lot will change the scheduling anyway its ran by a bunch of idiots who have less of a clue about programmes (whether they feature Scotland) to either opt in for one and not another - still I think STV bosses are playing the "revelancy to Scotland" cards still but they do realise viewers will go to ITV by other means or they will happily wait for ITV to do the repeats instead on ITV3/4 |

This one could easily be ID Fraud Beware or something else - must be me but its a new low for both channels with titles. |

England Friendly 7.45pm
Well done STV on the sudden cut off to break at 7.45pm - what was with the black screen with a white line in the middle?
, they solve the situation repeating the same Samsung ad TWICE then its back to normal! Loss of link or someone made a cock up? I see there was no apology made (even if they had cut the ad break short to resume with an on screen apology), but looked more like as if those at STV swept the incident under the carpet (as usual)

Its not the first time they done that, they did that two years ago there was a uproar in the daily mail sports website. Regarding that white line in the middle its an indication that the vt clock is about to load.
So what did STV do if that white line is about VideoTape clock is about to load? Is it meant to be system has had a glitch or someone forgot to set playout? Forget the white line bring back the actual clock!

As I believe this is one of their programmes? STV are pretty good to start running shows outwith ITV programmes ie one of their opt outs on ITV whilst they play catch up and then suddenly jump in midway through! (this was done with this very programme, so I would not be surprised if say next week or following week STV suddenly alters schedule late to fit this in)

Surprised just after ONE episode STV drops out of Big Box repeat(s) on ITV and AGAIN I ask whats the whole point of STV joining ITV to air a programme thats never aired on STV to be either a) dropped without a trace b) later return at an even SLOWER pace - whats the whole point in STV if they can't be bothered airing programmes with ITV or they do it but not complete a run? The S in STV is basic Shambles TV or the better word SH..E TV
, but this lot get away with it but if this was BBC Scotland (since people complain BBC in the wrong all the time), if a show was not aired hell would break loose and BBC(Scotland) have to explain themselves whilst STV doesn't? They are ignorant and discourteous.

At least the BBC (most of the time) have the courtesy to tell viewers when the next show is appearing (e.g. "Countryfile will return a week on XXX at 7.30pm") - STV don't give a tuppence worth to their customer service - no announcement to viewers, absolutely zilch.
They are ignorant and discourteous. (where is the apology or even courtesy?)

Motorsport airs through the night on ITV with (as always) no show on STV. Late night OPT OUTS this week include TELESHOPPING Mon (ITV has Gambling), RIVER MONSTERS & TELESHOPPING Tue (ITV has Bargain Shop Wars & In Plain Sight), TELESHOPPING Wed (ITV has Motorsport), Thur (ITV has Murder She Wrote) & Fri (ITV has Gambling). The "no show on STV" list (original screening month on ITV as stated) now looks like this:- 2016:- BARGING ROUND BRITAIN (Series 2, parts 1-6 Apr, part 6 bizarrely scheduled for Fri. 24th June at 8pm has been cancelled due to an episode of Emmerdale being screened). FURTHER TALES FROM NORTHUMBERLAND (Series 3, parts 1-8, Feb) 2015:- BRITAIN: AS SEEN ON ITV (Aug) SUPERHOSPITAL (June) WILD EXMOOR (parts 3 & 4), BIG BOX LITTLE BOX (parts 2-6) & BRITAIN'S BUSIEST AIRPORT - HEATHROW (series 1, parts 1-3) (all May) WILD IRELAND (April) MORE TALES FROM NORTHUMBERLAND (Series 2, part 8, Feb) 2014:- SECRETS FROM THE SKY & HOTEL IN THE CLOUDS (Nov) Emmerdale being screened instead of Barging around is I would say outwith ITV's control (be logical if they just aired and sacrificed Emmerdale but of course ITV is soap/reality central) I also noted in my local paper according to its listing that due to footy schedule STV may air Motorsport at 3am! (not sure of day), but knowing STV I can't see it as they'll air an episode or 2 then drop it again |
