This is something a little different that I thought I'd post up. I'm thinking of posting more current stuff soon anyway (well, stuff tying in with the recent Diamond Jubilee at least, ads and continuity and the like) and if I'm not in trouble for posting something like this where its just surfing through channels willy-nilly, I'll post a second part.
This is merely for those outside of the UK who are curious as to what digital TV's like over here. Though bare in mind, this is from an old Virgin Media set-up box that we've had since about 2006 or 2007 and will be replaced later this week with a classy-as-fudge TiVo set soon...though the only differences in the TV channel line-up will be that we'll have extra channels in HD as we'll have a HD set-up box so...this is what we have!
Enjoy if you're into that sort of thing. No contents this time, thought it would be wise not to include contents for a change. :)

Heres more continuity from the ITV Network Premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens. :)
Unfortunately had to remove the Sky Broadband ad after the Zoopla ad and before the 2nd 1&1 Ionos ad because the bland, stock music they used was a blockable copyright claim artifact for pretty much...all of Europe besides the UK and many more countries besides. On a related note, a LOT of the claims Im getting are coming supposedly from Eurosport. Yikes, hate to think how that networks doing if theyre now being a copyright claim troll on the side but anyway...
CONTENTS!:
1) Oh no! / ITV Back Soon ID Sting / Just Eat sponsership bumper

14) ITV ID Sting / iPhone XR ad (Around half a year since this, I changed from my iPhone 6 to an Android phone for the first time. Its a pity Apple dont like people buying phones of theirs from a couple of years back for cheaper directly from them cause rewatching this did make me think Oh hey, that WAS a thing, wasnt it?)
15) UK TV spot for Stan & Ollie (Been meaning to check this out for forever, John C. Reilly is great)

24) ITV ID Sting / Dancing on Ice Promo Bumper w/ Mark Little (Im not aware of this guy, hes proberbly nice and much more fun than this promo implies but my god, way to be as annoying as possible in 5 seconds!)
