This research project aims to provide, for the first time, a detailed historical narrative and critical analysis of the origins, nature and development of Independent Television (ITV) in Wales. The research will examine the pre-history of ITV and place the development of the commercial channel in the context of wider debates surrounding the representation of Wales on screen, national identity and nationalism and television and the Welsh language. Whilst some of these issues have been debated in the past, this research will ground the debates firmly in empirical data generated by a throrough and systematic study of a range of sources.Throughout its history, ITV pioneered with its output, particularly in the area of Welsh-language programmes. In 1958, Television Wales and West (TWW) launched a quiz show in Welsh whilst the ill-fated Wales (West and North) Television/Teledu Cymru company pioneered a comprehensive Welsh-language news service.The research, therefore, aims to redress an imbalance in terms of media history in which the BBC has 'stolen the limelight'.

该研究项目旨在首次对威尔士独立电视 (ITV) 的起源、性质和发展提供详细的历史叙述和批判性分析。该研究将考察独立电视台的史前历史，并将商业频道的发展置于围绕威尔士在银幕上的代表、民族认同和民族主义以及电视和威尔士语言的更广泛辩论的背景下。虽然其中一些问题过去一直存在争议，但本研究将把这些争论牢牢地扎根于对一系列来源进行彻底、系统研究所产生的经验数据。纵观其历史，ITV 的产出一直处于领先地位，特别是在威尔士语节目领域。 1958 年，威尔士和西部电视台 (TWW) 用威尔士语推出了问答节目，而命运多舛的威尔士（西部和北部）电视台/Teledu Cymru 公司则率先推出了全面的威尔士语新闻服务。因此，这项研究旨在纠正媒体历史上 BBC“抢尽风头”的不平衡现象。
