Energy company E.on sponsors the tour, but as yet there is no sponsor for the highlights package. The ITV programme will be aired from 8pm to 9pm each day, an hour later than originally announced.
The programme will be presented by Ned Boulting, while former world and Commonwealth cycling champion Hugh Porter and Anthony McCrossan will commentate on the action.
The race lasts a week, starting in central London and finishing in Liverpool on 14 September, taking in 15 venues, including Milton Keynes, Worcester, Hull and Glasgow over eight stages.
Team GB's Beijing Olympic medallists Bradley Wiggins, Geraint Thomas and Chris Newton are all slated to take part in the event.
In 2007's Tour, British riders took three stage wins and three out of a possible four leaders' jerseys.
