World in Action was Granada Television’s flagship ITV current affairs series, running from January 7, 1963, to December 7, 1998, and built a reputation for film-led investigative reporting and a strong editorial stance. Its journalism produced significant public and political repercussions—including investigations linked to miscarriages of justice such as the Birmingham Six—and it also served as a platform for landmark documentary projects, including the first broadcast of “Seven Up!” as part of the strand in 1964.
