What will LCN 26 be now LCN 23 is officially local TV in Scotland/Wales

So what will LCN 26 be? Im thinking ITV will do their best to grab this slot for ITV Be eventually, but will move a squat channel to it in the mean time.

Also LCN 37 I wonder what will get that?

ITV4+1 (to be replaced by ITVBe), and Quest (moved down one to make way for Quest+1).

I should say that that was an educated guess, not fact - before it is reported as such

Thats cool, but I think what you are saying is that this is the most likely outcome?

Yes, based on DUK's LCN policy.

LCN26 has today become ITV4+1 (which I realise isn't a real channel, just an LCN placeholder). ITV's +1 channels are now in the following, highly logical order:

26 ITV4+1
27 ITV2+1
33 ITV+1
34 ITV3+1

Good call, chrisy

Then obviously moving them into the correct order

31 - ITV+1
32 - ITV2+1
33 - ITV3+1
34 - ITV4+1

Makes sense!

ITV 4+1 has very few hours and during the night, so like kasg says its not a real channel.
ITV will be using ITV 4+1 for ITV Be when it launches and might use ITV 3+1 as ITV Be+1 who knows?
Anyway imagine that ITV 4+1 is ITV Be and then see that leaving it alone is in ITVs best interest!
I agree that ITV +1 should be next at LCN 27 though and ITV2+1 up in the 30s would be good, but thats only actually swapping ITV +1 and ITV 2+1 though.

Any chance of them keeping ALL the +1's and adding ITV Be

Having a strong presence on Freeview & possibly Freesat.

ITV ITV2 ITV3 ITV4 ITVBe & ITV+1 ITV2+1 ITV3+1 ITV4+1 & ITVBe+1

freesat will have all of those anyway once ITV Be launches, freeview doesnt have the space (or ITV cant buy it off other broadcasters (too expensive)), for all the +1s.

The move of Quest and Quest+1 has also now been confirmed - you are a prophet!
