The City of Manchester and its surrounding area, just like sport and music, has a strong heritage for television broadcasting. The city is home to the oldest television studios in the UK and the most successful ITV franchisee, Granada Television. Manchester's most famous television exports include ''Coronation Street'', ''Seven Up!'', ''Songs of Praise'', ''University Challenge'', ''A Question of Sport'' and ''Mastermind'' - all of which are still broadcasting to large audiences today. Granada's productions gradually waned in the 2000s, but it is hoped the BBC move to Salford Quays in 2011 will spawn a new era of television broadcasting in the area. Manchester also has a high correlation of successful television drama series, with many being produced and filmed in Manchester and the surrounding areas. Television broadcasting in Manchester is currently undergoing a major transition with the famous Granada Studios and New Broadcasting House being demolished by 2013 to be replaced by MediaCityUK and The Sharp Project. Both the BBC and ITV have promised to invest more in the North and Manchester will be the base for these operations. MediaCityUK, located two miles from Manchester City Centre, will act as a new second home for the BBC and ITV away from London. This is a list of television programmes that are/were either set, produced or filmed in Manchester.〔http://www2.tv-ark.org.uk/itvnorthwest/granadatv/programmes.html〕〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/manchester/madeinmanchester/index.shtml〕〔http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=549779〕 The Media in Manchester page provides a more in depth look at the history of broadcasting and media in Manchester. ==Background== The city has had a long heritage of producing programmes at various studios, most notably at ITV's Granada Studios and the BBC's New Broadcasting House.
