I'm in. Been watching this one for a while and fancy that a good news flow will grab the attention of the investors with their eyes on the pacific as an investment area.
China should experience something of a high demand time for consumer goods in the very near future and the novelty of PCM coupled with this should make it an exciting time.
I don't expect chinese fireworks in a matter of days or weeks and am quite happy to sit it out and wait, but once it starts I think a rollercoaster would be tame compared to this. Loads of opportunities for averaging in the undoubted dips to come, but expect the peaks to outperform the dips in the long run.

not wanting to be a sour puss but doesnt this share need a consildation before this can be really a good bet as there is so many shares issued as the big boys can afford it as like in so many other shares this is not always a good thing 4 the private investor

Excellent news to start the week. All we need is the patience to wait for the results of all this work, IMO we have the foundations of a great company out of the ashes of the dog that it was--it's still a way off consolidation they need revenues and contracts first.

This was in the Telegraph yesterday 10/07/2005 no wonder we are still waiting for news with all this going on.
"APAX and Providence Equity Partners, the private equity firms, are considering bidding for the television content arm of Telewest, the cable telecoms group which is in merger talks with rival NTL.
Telewest's television-content interests consist of Flextech, which owns channels such as LivingTV, and a 50 per cent stake in UKTV, a joint venture with the BBC that produces nine channels including UKTV Gold and UKTV Food.
Bankers say that the Telewest content business could be worth between 500m and 1bn, though opinions vary widely on the value of the division.
Trade buyers from the US, potentially including Disney, Viacom and Time Warner, are also thought to be interested in bidding. "This could be their entry point into the UK market," said one executive.
Telewest has yet to make clear its exact plans for the television content business, but options include an outright sale or a partial disposal.
A sale could be complicated by the fact that the BBC has a change-of-control clause in the UKTV joint venture. This gives it the option to buy the 50 per cent it does not already own - which is thought unlikely - or potentially veto bids for UKTV.
Some industry executives argue that Telewest might therefore choose to retain its UKTV stake, while selling the rest of its content interests. Another option could be a sale of Sit-Up TV, the producer of shopping channels including Bid-Up TV, which was bought by Flextech in May.
Some television executives have been surprised by Telewest's apparent plan to sell the television content business. "I don't think they will sell it in the end, because once they have exited television content, there is no going back," said one television executive. "I would think they should focus on putting the two companies together first." Another executive described a sale as "bonkers""
