It seems simple to me, ITV pull the plug, if VM keep showing it then the lawyers are called in

It's not quite that simple. At the moment there is a "must carry" obligation for PSB services so, in theory, VM has to carry ITV. Things start to get difficult if ITV cut the direct feed, As a PSB, ITV has a "must offer" obligation.
This is what happens when legislation is introduced without considering the implications..
