ATV Network ® text and logo is a registered trademark (online media, television and entertainment) of ATV Network Limited. ATV North(™), ATV Midlands(™) and ATV London(™) are regularly used brands of ATV Network since 2006 as part of the ‘ATV News Network‘.
ATV News Network was founded in 2006 following a merger of NewsZone (created by the Crossroads Fan Club/Doug Lambert/Mike Garrett) and SoapWorld™ (created by Shaun Linden) websites to create a dual content site. The ATV Today™ brand was implemented fully in 2008.
ATV Network Limited is a wholly owned company of the Associated Television Network Limited.
Note of warning: Companies have been formed in late 2015 baring some of our production brands, however company names do not override a brand name, and these recently created companies should be treated with caution. They are not associated with the longer running ATV Network nor our brands ATV Midlands or ATV London which have been in regular use for several years.
