That's why he's a billionaire and doesn't have time to post on these forums whilst we're not and do.
But on a more serious note, you need a production company and infrastructure in place before you start hiring these bigshots which LGI does not really have. It does have a rather unusual collection of content investments including the All3Media 50% stake, 10% ITV and 100% of the FTA TV3 channel in Ireland.
