Televisión de Galicia (Spanish pronunciation: [teleβiˈsjon de ɡaˈliθja]; Television of Galicia; abbreviated as TVG), commonly known as A Galega (The Galician [One]), is the primary television channel of Galician public broadcaster Corporación de Radio Televisión de Galicia (CRTVG).
History
TVG went on air for the first time on 25 July 1985, with the short film Mamasunción by Chano Piñeiro. After a test period, which lasted until 29 September 1985, the station began broadcasting regularly with 39 weekly hours of programmes. The station now broadcasts a full 168 hours per week, with almost 70 per cent of its own productions. On 31 December 1996, its international channel started broadcasting in America through satellite, and on 17 May 1997, started offering its complete service via the Internet. Soon afterwards, the international channel started broadcasting in Europe. TVG is also offered in other parts of Spain as well as in Portugal by a number of cable television providers. All broadcasts are open and "free to air" (restrictions may sometimes apply to sporting events).
