So,Apollo's Pad (internet side) is soon to have full functionality ready to bring to MipTV in April 2008 to sell as a TV series.This is all on top off revenue already being brought in by Croco,Skunk Fu and Phoenix!
From January's Final results:
"The first Apollo's Pad content was launched online in October as per our
schedule in order to test the consumer reaction and beta test our portal,
apollospad.com. We placed 2 music videos through online video channels such as
YouTube and Yahoo that successfully drove consumer traffic to the website. In
February of 2008 apollospad.com will have full functionality and we will be
launching the comedy content into the online market. This will drive sales of a
branded collection of music videos either through our own portal apollospad.com
or through Sony BMG. Further to this we will see revenues from apollospad.com in
the form of advertising, sponsorship, downloads and subscriptions. We will use
this as a launch pad to sell an Apollo's Pad TV series at MipTV in April 2008."

Evening driver,
The major investors appear to be still on board and were happy to take part in last years 8 million placing at 29p.
I think the SP is just being nibbled down due to low volumes which is to be expected as there is lots of potential out there and on many fronts but actual revenue figures for Phoenix are still to be seen,early days but looking very good,imo.

3 March 2008
Galleon Holdings Plc
('Galleon' or the 'Company')
Galleon launches Soccer Show in China with Chelsea F.C. and Guangdong TV Sports
channel
Galleon is pleased to announce that it has entered into a co-production
agreement with Guangdong TV Sports Channel, one of China's largest regional
broadcasters, and Chelsea Football Club, the exclusive football club partner,
for a live action soccer talent show 'Super Soccer Star'. The show is currently
going into production and is scheduled for broadcast in April 2008.
Under the terms of the agreement Galleon and Guangdong TV Sports Channel will
produce the initial series of 13 episodes on an equal partner basis for
broadcast on the Guangdong TV Sports Channel. The show is multiplatform and will
generate revenue from numerous channels and activities including, sponsorship,
advertising, mobile phone participation, live events, online activities and
branded merchandise.
Guangdong TV Sports Channel broadcasts across the Guangdong province to its 12
major cities and also certain parts of neighbouring provinces Guangxi and
Zhongxing reaching a total of 50 million estimated viewers. Guangdong TV Sports
Channel is one of the official broadcasting partners to the FA Premier League
('FAPL') broadcasting FAPL games into China.
The Super Soccer Star Show will provide a mix of football and entertainment as
well as interactive content for viewers. The show aims to promote football
skills and fitness in the teen age group and to appeal to family peak-time
viewing. Soccer schools and coaches across the Guangdong province will send
their most promising players to the show to participate in the selection process
over the 13 episodes of the show. Contestants are eliminated during the course
of the show with one of the final episodes being held in Chelsea leading to the
winner being granted a place to train at the Chelsea Academy.
Galleon owns the Super Soccer Star show and format. Following the establishment
of the first series it is intended to roll-out the format and the brand to other
provinces in China and other countries in South East Asia.
Stephen Green, Chief Executive, commented,
'We believe that Super Soccer Star could become a national show in China and can
springboard into other territories in SE Asia. This is an entertainment format
which appeals to grass roots football in China. We are delighted to have the
backing of a 'Super Brand' like Chelsea which will be working with us on the
project to support the technical side and the promotion to grass roots soccer in
the province. Chelsea is one of the most recognisable football brands in the
world and one of the best followed clubs in China.'
