<p>The ITV thriller <strong>Gone</strong> stars David Morrissey as the headmaster of a renowned private school who is suspected of killing his wife. The series was filmed in and around Bristol, showcasing the local landscape and architecture.</p>
<p>The school featured in the series is Downside School, a real public school located in Bath. Additionally, the village of Saltford served as one of the filming locations, adding to the authenticity of the setting.</p>
<p>Sets for the police station and various interiors of the Polly house were constructed at <strong>The Bottle Yard Studios</strong>, a prominent filming location in the UK. The production has drawn attention not only for its storyline but also for its visual representation of the region.</p>
<p>Viewers can watch <strong>Gone</strong> on ITV1 and ITVX, making it accessible to a wide audience eager for thrilling drama.</p>
<h2>Cheltenham Festival Coverage</h2>
<pIn addition to its drama offerings, ITV is gearing up for the <strong>Cheltenham Festival</strong>, which will take place from March 10-13, 2026. Viewers in the UK can catch the first five races of the festival on ITV1, although the final two races of each day will be available exclusively on Racing TV.</p>
<p>The coverage of the Cheltenham Festival has sparked some controversy, particularly with the inclusion of influencers, which has divided fans. Chris Hughes, a familiar face in ITV&#8217;s racing coverage, was dropped after six years, citing cost-cutting measures as the reason for his departure.</p>
<h2>Viewer Engagement</h2>
<pDespite the changes, ITV's racing content continues to attract significant viewership. A clip featuring influencers GK Barry and Calfreezy chatting with Oli Bell garnered 1.3 million views, while a video of Lossiemouth winning the Unibet Champion Hurdle Challenge Trophy received 55,800 views.</p>
<p>As the festival approaches, ticket prices have been announced, with a daily Club Enclosure ticket costing £103.50 for the first three days, while Tattersalls tickets are priced at £73.80, and day tickets for the Best Mate enclosure are available for £54.</p>
<p>The storyline of <strong>Gone</strong> is based on the real-life murder of Melanie Road, a 17-year-old who was sexually assaulted and murdered in June 1984. This tragic event adds a layer of depth to the narrative, making it not just a fictional thriller but a reflection on a real crime that shocked the community.</p>
<p>As viewers anticipate the premiere of <strong>Gone</strong> and the upcoming Cheltenham Festival, the landscape of ITV&#8217;s programming continues to evolve, with both excitement and uncertainty surrounding the changes in coverage and content.</p>
