Ten Alps Plc (TAL)

July 3rd, 2008

As media companies go Ten Alps is quite hard to quantify. It does telly, internet, publishing, contract publishing, you name it.

This diversity is what we think makes it a decent bet, then again we would think internet TV is the future. Ahem.

Mind you, the most fun of this company is that it is in Sir Bob Geldolf's portfolio. Absolutely. F***ing right!

Er… One small error here folks, obviously the cash pile Ten Alps is sitting on is £11.2 Million, not Billion. Sorry about that. The person responsible has been summarily executed. Thanks.

Very sweet Blog!

RDF Media Plc (RDF) - The Director's Cut

December 12th, 2007

OK, OK. Hands up. We all make mistakes. And we did.

But, hey, there’s no sense in burying a good film just because there’s a teensy-weensy little error in it. It's only fair that we put it right.

So here for your viewing pleasure is a second chance to see one of our favourite shows – first broadcast on December 4. Give it up for RDF Media – the Director's Cut.

Ha ha ha RDF of all people getting the hump about dodgy editing. Oh the irony of it.
Personally I think it is time for the Beeb to bring its program making back in house. Outsourcing was supposed to improve the quality and reduce costs; it hasn’t done either. TV production is just as bad if not worse than it was in the 70’s and 80’s the major difference being there are more management snouts in the trough with the inevitable reduction in funding for programming.
Bring back the test card. At least the background music to it kept granny happy.
