Welcome to ITV Channel's new studios!

Today marks the end of an era. ITV Channel News has been broadcasting from its base at La Pouquelaye in Jersey since 1988. At the time, the building was purpose build and state-of-the-art.

But, after almost 30 years, the facilities have become too old for modern television.

The new studios are based right in the heart of St Helier at Castle Quay, overlooking Jersey's Marina. It has taken months of planning and millions of pounds of investment.

There has been 40 staff to move and weeks of practice rehearsals to get ready to go live. Our Guernsey office has also had a revamp, but is staying at Bulwer Avenue.
