Representing Border is a regional television current affairs programme, produced by ITV Tyne Tees & Border, covering political issues from Holyrood, Westminster and local government, affecting Dumfries and Galloway and the Scottish Borders.

The programme was launched on Monday 6 January 2014, as part of an enhanced sub-regional service for southern Scotland, introduced to address concerns over coverage of the Border region since the company's operations were merged with those of ITV Tyne Tees in 2009.[1][2]

Representing Border is produced from ITV Tyne Tees & Border's Scottish Parliament bureau in Edinburgh and airs on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights, following the late-night Border news bulletin. The programme is not broadcast in Cumbria, where networked programming continues to air.
