Dover was the home to television studios and production offices of [[Southern Television]] Ltd, the company which operated the ITV franchise for South and South East England from 1958 to 1981.  The studios were located on Russell Street and were home to programmes like 'Scene South East', 'Scene Midweek', 'Southern News', 'Farm Progress' and the nightly epilogue, 'Guideline'.  The studios were operated by TVS in 1982 and home to 'Coast to Coast', however they closed a year later when the company moved their operations to the newly complete Television Centre in [[Maidstone]].
