Interesting. That transmission has been around for a long time. Looks like it is just the content that has changed. If it is to be ITV 4+1 then it is good news for us here in the Canaries. We will have access to a version of all ITV's except ITV3.
 
Confirmed as ITV4 +1 - its now got the correct dog on it. :D
