London Weekend Television (LWT) (now part of ITV London) is the ITV network franchise holder for London and the South East at weekends, broadcasting from Fridays at 5:15pm. (prior to 1982 at 7:00pm) to Monday mornings at 5:59am.
London Weekend Television is no longer individually identified on air, and uses the generic ITV1 logo for continuity announcements (the announcement of the next programme and forthcoming ones), and as a banner during commercial advertising breaks. The company is managed with Carlton Television as a single entity (ITV London), but the two companies are still separately licensed. The franchise is currently operated by ITV plc under the licensee of ITV Broadcasting Limited.
