BBC Local Video (originally Local TV) was a pilot project operating in the West Midlands region serving Birmingham, the Black Country, Coventry & Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire and Hereford & Worcester, England. Teams of video journalists at six centres (sharing local radio offices) began broadcasts on digital satellite television (accessed via the BBC Red Button from any BBC channel on page 1700) and via the BBC's local websites on 1 December 2005. The service ran as a 9-month trial until the Summer of 2006.
