TV8 (magazine)

TV8 was a British magazine published weekly that focused primarily on television listings, news, and features. It was published by Independent Television Publications (ITP), which also produced TVTimes, another popular listings magazine. TV8 aimed at a younger demographic than TVTimes, featuring more content related to youth-oriented television shows, music, and films. The magazine typically included interviews with television stars, previews of upcoming programs, behind-the-scenes reports, and reader competitions. TV8's circulation peaked in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but it eventually ceased publication as the television listings market became increasingly competitive and diversified. The precise dates of its publication run are commonly cited as the mid-1970s through the mid-1980s.
