ITV sees fall in revenues as it grapples with 'uncertain' economic environment

Broadcasting giant ITV endured a fall in revenues at the start of the year and expects the TV advertising market to remain tough as it grapples with an "uncertain" economic environment.

The group, home to shows such as Britain's Got Talent, Broadchurch and The Voice, saw net advertising revenue drop 9% to £393 million in the first quarter, but said predictions for the full-year were unchanged.
