The '''Moscow Programme''' (Московская программа ЦТ, ''Moskovskaya programma TsT'') was a television channel in the [[Soviet Union]]. It had a political focus and discussed events in [[Moscow]]. Now it is a television station broadcast by the Moscow City Government named [[TV Centre (Russia)|TV Centre]].

== History ==

The Moscow Programme was established in March 1965, as '''Programme Three''', with a focus on educational programming. It broadcast from the Shabolovka television building in [[Moscow]].

As part of the celebrations of the 50th anniversary of the [[October Revolution]] in 1967, the new television headquarters was established at Ostankino in [[Moscow]]. At this point, all central television programmes in the USSR emanated from there.

In 1982 Programme Three was renamed '''Moscow Programme''', following [[Programme Two|Programme 2]]'s upgrading as a national channel. Moscow-centric programming, previously aired on Programme 2 was transferred to Programme 3.

Line 14 ⟶ 27:

The Moscow Programme transmitted its channel over the [[SECAM]] D/K band. In the 1980s it also expanded via the [[Gorizont]] satellite across much of Europe and Asia.

When the Soviet Union dissolved in December 1991, the [[Moscow Television CompanyChannel]] ({{lang|ru|Московский телевизионный канал}}, MTK) took over operations of this channel. It aired programmes from [[2x2 (TV channel)|2x2]] in the evening. This channel was replaced by [[TV_Centre_TV Centre (Russia)|TV Centre]] in 1997.
