This had two parties to resolve a single issue of a contract
It is simple
yes we can do it at a price and terms that is acceptable to both sides
no we can't do it at a price that is acceptable to both sides
If the former was the case 12/18 months ago but now is possible due to change in circumstances then its not really an 18 month negotiation but a negotation which closed, parked for some time and re-opened by one of the parties.

Yeah and I know for a fact that the new hospital builds (at least the new Super Hospital in Birmingham) was under negotiation for a LOT longer than 18months. From initial plan to council approval was over 6 years. So what's your point? That more complex deals that even longer? I think that's a given?
Carriage deal ARE NOT just down to two parties, the deals are contingent on deals with many other parties as well, especially when it comes to VOD.
