ITV Global launches Granada TV in Singapore

Granada TV is billed as a contemporary general entertainment channel with programming drawn from UK-based ITV’s extensive library. 

The channel will offer dramas such as Prime Suspect, and other comedy and reality entertainment shows such as The Jeremy Kyle Show, The Friday Night Project, Ballroom Bootcamp, Airline, and Vroom Vroom. Most of the programmes have yet to be seen in Asia.
