Each of these 12 franchises has a separate brand name used prior to local programming, see ITV1. STV is the brand name for the franchises for central and northern Scotland. UTV operates the franchise for Northern Ireland. All 15 franchises broadcast 0925-0600; GMTV operates the franchise for national breakfast television and broadcasts 0600-0925.

None of the commercial multiplex operators have asked Ofcom to extend their multiplex to any of the 1,074 relay transmitters so these multiplexes will broadcast only from the existing 80 main transmitters that carry all the multiplexes after switchover.
