Wonderful Bill, and he's always been kind about other serials and soaps which shows what a decent guy he is. I suppose when you've worked in one as long as he has he knows how much hard work it actually takes for the teams.

Its Nolly Thursday so settle down to a bit of Nolly and Crossroads and curl up by the fire! #noelegordon #crossroadstvshow ＡＴＶＬＡＮＤ @ATVNetwork ATV Today Noele Gordon News Noele Gordon 'Nolly' Archive Mike G The 1960s, 1970s and 1980s Revisited ＡＴＶＬＡＮＤ ATV Network ATV Today Crossroads Motel Crossroads Fan Club

A lovely letter in the Radio Times, ITVX has launched a classic ATV/Central #ITV70 section featuring Crossroads and also some General Hospital featuring Tony Adams.

As it's not easy to find the #ITV70 section. It's divided into ITV genre's, companies and decades. Obviously Crossroads is in ATV. itv.com/watch/collecti…

There's also some General Hospital on the ITV70s '70's section' also can be found in the 'ATV/Central' section.

Remembering Pat Phoenix,who died on this day in 1986.

Happy Birthday to the fabulous Sherrie Hewson, hope you have a wonderful day. 👑

Celebrating 70 years of ITV on ITVX, you can enjoy some classic ATV and Central programmes as well as recent reports marking the anniversary from ITV News Central: itv.com/watch/collecti…

If anyone cares, the correct typefaces for Crossroads and General Hospital

Interesting they embrace the word 'soaps' for Coronation St and Emmerdale, Granada was insulted if you called The Street a soap, and rightly so. It has about as much in common format wise to As The World Turns as Doctor Who has to Casualty.

Have a wander through some of the memories of ITV's 21st anniversary in 1980 here in now the 70th year since the original Independent Television launched.

The certificate of Incorporation for Associated Broadcasting Company Limited from February 2nd, 1955 this was the company that became Associated Television later, founded by Norman Collins and Prince Littler/Lew Grade who united two separate companies est. 1954 to create ATV.
