The Grampian Zone GPN logo

Welcome to the Grampian section of The Ident Zone.

This section forms part of The Ident Zone, based at the MHP. Each chapter is dedicated to a particular breed of television graphics, idents, symbols or logos. Over time, we hope it will build to become the definitive source of information on television graphics.

If you can help correct any of the facts, supply any dates, or suggest what's missing (even if you don't have a copy), then please visit The Ident Zone for details of how to get in touch.

Continuity Announcers - The Class of '98

Until recently, Grampian Television was one of the few remaining ITV companies that made use of in-vision continuity announcers. Sadly, an era came to an end when continuity was taken over by STV in Glasgow. This page fondly remembers Grampian's final team of announcers, the Class of '98.

Previous Announcers Hall of Fame

The final Grampian announcers were but the latest in a long tradition, just a small portion of which is celebrated in the Hall of Fame. How has Robin Galloway earned a crust since leaving the Granite City? All will be revealed...
