History
Granada Studios opened in 1988. The tour attracted over 5 million visitors, but visitor numbers were declining by the late 1990s and Granada television had to prioritise other parts of its business such as the failing ONdigital (ITV Digital) service. As a result, the Granada Studios Tour closed for good in 1998.
