Latest TV were invited to the House of Commons this week to present a film to MPs on the power of Local TV.
The showcase showed a snapshot of the work of the UK Local TV network representing 34 city and local TV stations across the UK. It shows the wide diversity of programming featured on UK Local TV stations. A springboard for emerging talent, whether it is young musicians such as Ed Sheeran who become mega global stars, or young journalists such as Amol Rajan who become the faces of major national broadcasters. The Local TV network reaches the parts of Britain that other major networks may not reach, giving a voice to all communities across the UK.

Angi Mariani, from Latest TV said, “Latest TV is proud to be part of the UK Local TV network. We broadcast 24/7 in Brighton and Sussex on Freeview Channel 7, Virgin Media 159 and livestreamed at thelatest.co.uk. Take a look at our short film which features some highlights from across the UK. We're especially pleased that many young journalists working in local TV go on to work for major broadcasters around the world, including our own recruits, Jules Breach (now the face of BT Sports), Tatiana Sanchez and many more.
At every opportunity we promote the city of Brighton & Hove across the UK Local TV network. If any companies want to be featured on local TV, then please contact me.”
