Does scare me a bit how Telewest were operating profitably before ntl as well as pushing the services envelope more. Had Telewest bought C+W this would be very different, trust me.
All moot anyway as previously mentioned, Telewest aren't going to be buying ntl any time soon, and any merger would have ntl as the dominant partner (I'm afraid).
Tell you what, let's compare ntl to BT instead, where exchanges are being enabled for ADSL late due to core network upgrades being needed (not enough bandwidth) and 10% of their exchanges are operating at an oversubscribed level shall we?
