Unwind with ITV, known as Unwind with STV on STV, is an ITV ambient television programme. It broadcasts time-lapse footage of various peaceful environments or computer graphics, over soft ambient music or ASMR sounds. Its introduction was, partially, a part of ITV's Britain Get Talking campaign, and is produced by Plymouth-based Rock Oyster Media with music coming from the libraries of the music conglomerate BMG.[1] It started broadcasting since 2 October 2021.[2]

Origins

Unwind with ITV replaced an earlier programme called ITV Nightscreen, which was an hour-and-half filler programme of promotional information about upcoming ITV shows that ran over the late hours of ITV's night-time service. The programme was used to fill the station's overnight downtime, where a closedown would have once been used at the end of programmes. However under ITV's public service broadcasting requirements, the channel is required to operate a 24-hour-a-day service. ITV classified ITV Nightscreen as a regional programme. In 2017, the programme was said to account for more than a third of ITV’s regional programming hours. Ofcom considered this an inappropriate means of fulfilling regional quotas and took action to remove the loophole. [3]
