    As ITV's move from its iconic base on Quay Street to the Orange Tower at MediaCityUK nears completion, this tribute looks back at 56 years of Granada television. Beginning from its inception in 1954, including rare archive footage of its co-founders, brothers Sidney and Cecil Bernstein, replays archive clips of some of the programmes and performances filmed and produced there - from Coronation Street, Prime Suspect, Jewel In the Crown, and Stars In Their Eyes, to the television debuts of The Sex Pistols, Take That, and the Beatles.
