Is it day 1? It's supposed to be but I've heard nothing yet?

The new company is actualy to be called.... wait for it...... ntl:Telewest.

Inspiring! No, as you know it's actually a stop gap name until we take on the Virgin brand and become Virgin Cable or something.

I don't think customers will notice anything for a while not until decisions are made on what billing systems to use, what format the DTV will be etc etc.

At least what you have now is a company that can really compete with BT and Sky.

However, as you know we are not the only cable company left in the UK. There's good old "wight cable" holding out, waiting for the call from Steve Birch
