Rumours flying all over the place on this. I will be buying in the morning.
The rumour that made me want to add, suggests that a big deal has been done that will more than double the size of the company. Wed, is the day I am told.
Good luck

I am concerned that there has not been more buying on this rumour as it must be flying around the city by now. I hope it is correct.
The rumour I picked up on was that a bid was being made for Virtue by a company in Oz.
Anyone know anything, if not I may just cut and run if no news by tomorrow.

Looks as though you're right but.... there was a bit in the press a few weeks ago about a rumour,, wouldn't surprise me if this takes us all by surprise & comes good in the next week or two, I might top up again if it drops to 3p-ish in the short term. -- wouldn't want to be out of this one whe she rockets skyhigh !

Virtue Broadcasting PLC
22 July 2004
Embargoed Release: 07:00hrs Thursday 22nd July 2004
Virtue Broadcasting Plc
('the Company')
Agreement
Virtue Broadcasting Plc is pleased to announce that it has reached an agreement
to surrender the property lease of its former head office, Tornado House,
Marlow, which is currently unoccupied. Under the agreement the Company has made
a net cash saving of 805,000 compared to its obligations under the lease over
the next two and a half years.
The Company has agreed to pay Comland Management Limited ('the Landlord') a
surrender premium of 495,000 net of VAT in addition to related expenses and
reinstatement costs of 110,000. As part of the settlement the Company will
utilise a 318,000 secured rent deposit held in favour of the Landlord
previously fully written off in the Company's 2002 accounts. Therefore, the net
additional cash payment will be 287,000.
In consideration of the surrender premium the Company will avoid paying
approximately 1.4 million of rent, service charge, lease termination payments,
reinstatement costs and running costs over the next two and a half years.
The Company made full provision for the expected costs arising under the lease
in its 2002 accounts.

Yep barnymam, but why revive the other 2 threads as well?
Anyway the main point is
Under the agreement the Company has made
a net cash saving of 805,000 compared to its obligations under the lease over
the next two and a half years.
Which is useful when the market cap is only about 11.5Million.

VTB/World TV article in observer....
http://observer.guardian.co.uk/business/story/0,6903,1268342,00.html
Bored with Big Brother, soaps, pornography or obscure sports? There is an alternative - televised annual general meetings.
Two British communications companies with many blue-chip firms as their clients will announce a merger tomorrow. Virtue Broadcasting will acquire World TV (valued at 18.1 million) in a reverse takeover.
World produces internal TV content for clients, while Virtue specialises in internet broadcasting technology. They hope to integrate their technology and client bases and expand their corporate business - in particular, by broadcasting AGMs.
Neither began in the corporate sector. In 1991, World was set up to provide internal content for non-governmental organisations such as Greenpeace. It now works for clients including BP, Nestland Reuters, as well as the Foreign Office, producing English-language content for expatriates in Iraq.
Virtue first attracted attention developing web services for pop sensations the Cheeky Girls. Their client list is now slightly more respectable - it includes Microsoft, British American Tobacco and UBS.
Virtue's finance director James Ormondroyd said he anticipated 'great commercial and technological synergies', and predicted continued expansion across Europe.
