Latest TV: Talking Pictures

By day, Latest TV shows classic films via our friends at Talking Pictures TV, including some fantastic Brighton based films such as Brighton Rock and Jigsaw. And by night at 10pm we also show a late night movie. This Sunday’s late night film sees another classic, I’m All Right Jack, a satire about a strike in a factory with stars such as Peter Sellers, Richard Attenborough and Margaret Rutherford.

Brighton has long had an association with filmmaking with many pioneers of film congregating here in the late 1890s and early 1900s. We have shown some of these amazing black and white films on our channel, as well as pioneering new films from today’s young local filmmakers.

Local TV is still in its infancy as we are coming up to broadcasting for three years in the Brighton, Hove and Worthing areas. We were one of the very early channels to be granted a licence and there are now 28 channels across the UK with a further six planned for this summer. Collectively we are all on Freeview channel 7 and reach millions of UK viewers.

Support your local TV channel. Tune in to our broadcast channels, follow us on Twitter and Facebook, and contact us with your films, and news stories.
