ITV has been making headlines due to the success of its dramas and the impact of its programming on social issues.

Additionally, ITV's coverage of real-world events, such as the plight of subpostmasters, has garnered attention and praise from viewers.
ITV, a British free-to-air public broadcast television network, was established in 1955 as Independent Television to introduce competition to the BBC. Over the years, ITV has become a prominent player in the UK television industry, offering a wide range of programming, including news, dramas, and entertainment shows. The network's commitment to addressing social issues and providing engaging content has solidified its position as a leading broadcaster in the country.
