Local TV Bristol
Local TV Bristol is a British local television channel serving Bristol and surrounding areas, which broadcasts on Freeview on channel 7 from the Mendip transmitter. The station is one of nine owned and operated by Local TV Limited.
In September 2012, the broadcast regulator Ofcom announced Made Television had been awarded a licence to broadcast the local TV service for the Bristol area, serving a potential audience of around 330,000. The company was unopposed in bidding for the licence.
The station began broadcasting on Freeview, Sky and Virgin Media platforms at 8pm on 8 October 2014; it was the first of Made TV's stations to be launched. After three months on air, Made in Bristol claimed a weekly audience of around 168,000 viewers.
Since August 2015, the station has also been streaming live online via its website. On 5 April 2016, Made in Bristol moved from Freeview channel 8 to Freeview channel 7.
In February 2017, a revamp of the station's local output led to the launch of a flagship two-hour live magazine show on weeknights, The Crunch Bristol, incorporating news, sport, current affairs and entertainment.
On 25 May 2017, Made in Bristol and its sister channels began carrying acquired programming from the UK & Ireland version of factual entertainment channel TruTV as part of a supply agreement with Sony Pictures Television. The station simulcasts TruTV in two daily blocks from 1pm to 5pm and from 9pm to 1am (8pm to midnight on Tuesdays to accommodate America's Got Talent). In November 2017, the Made network began simulcasting CBS Reality for eleven hours a day.
In November 2017, following a restructuring of the Made network's operations, The Crunch Bristol was axed, local output was cut and studio production of daily news and magazine programmes was transferred to other Made TV stations.
On 2 January 2018, Made in Bristol ceased broadcasting on digital satellite and was replaced by a generic Made Television networked feed featuring a daily three-hour block of local news programming for six of the network's licence areas, including Bristol.
