"Channel 6, the national network set up to deliver local TV across the UK, today outlined what it claims will be the biggest boost to the independent TV production sector in 30 years.
CEO Horwood promised that Channel 6 would not be a "mishmash" of old US series and claimed that if the station gets the national contract it will deliver "the biggest boost to the UK's independent production sector since the launch of Channel 4 a generation ago".
