Tyne & Wear TV

Its local offices are based at the David Puttnam Media Centre in the St. Peter's campus at the University of Sunderland.

In December 2012, the broadcast regulator OFCOM announced Made Television had been awarded a licence to broadcast the local TV service for the Newcastle, Gateshead and Sunderland areas, serving a potential audience of 900,000 viewers in an area stretching from Alnwick in the north to Bishop Auckland in the south.

The channel began broadcasting on Freeview, Sky and Virgin Media platforms on Wednesday 12 November 2014, completing the roll out of the four Made TV stations, following launches in Bristol, Cardiff and Leeds.

On 2 January 2018, Made in Tyne & Wear ceased broadcasting on digital satellite and was replaced by a generic Made Television networked feed featuring a daily three-hour block of local news programming for six of the network's licence areas, including Tyne & Wear.

A half-hour block also airs on the generic Made Television networked feed on digital satellite each weekday evening at 7.30.
