Its very annoying when, after the BBC news, I then get 'local' news for places that I dont even know.
People that are in my street but on either Sky or another network are getting Anglia/Thames.

Just to be clear....I live in Harlow, Essex and up until I got Virgin Media installed I got the real local news from my area.

Thanks for reading.
As far as I know Anglia is indeed the ITV contractor for Harlow as you well doubt know, Thames left the network in 1992. There was a sub region called ITV Thames Valley but it didn't cover Harlow and has since been closed.

Is there any chance you are watching on channel 113 ITV1 HD? if so you won't get your local news as Anglia does not have an HD channel yet, try 103 to see what news you get.

If you live in an overlap area you may find further regions in the 800's on your EPG.
