Just found a page on the NTL site here that lists the current debt at $6.5Bn.

I know lots of companies (and countries) get big debts and it doesn't seem to matter. But if NTL are not making an actual operating profit (at least I didn't see one in the Q3 results), how are they ever going to pay off the debt? Or doesn't it matter as it is covered by company assets or something?
