Was CTF the same organisation as today's TV5? As with CTF, TV5 is also a consortium of French broadcasters, which includes the above networks (or their successors).

Sort of...the CTF was an association of French-language state-owned channels that collaborated on programming...think of it as a French-language Eurovision, and you've got the idea :)

Just a minor clarification: ORTF was no longer around in 1980, having been split up into several companies (including three separately run TV networks) five years earlier.

And one of which (TF1) would later end up privatized ;)
