Over 80 senior local business people attended the recent Nottingham City Business Club lunch when they heard from Notts TV’s channel director James Brindle and commercial manager Charlie Bromley.

Notts TV was recently granted a 12 year licence and is due to be on our screens from Spring 2014. The channel, which is part of the local tv network, will be transmitted on Freeview Channel 8 and will be on air seven days a week, initially 4pm to midnight, and then from earlier in the day as more programming becomes available.

The programmes will be produced by a dedicated team set up to run the channel, by the Notts TV consortium companies, and by local producers.

The club’s President, Dianne Allen, who is also managing director of Gemini PR & Marketing, said: “Clearly many people were very keen to learn more about the channel, what sort of programmes are going to be produced and aired and what commercial opportunities there are for local businesses. It was a popular event.”
