Do you think Virgin took over NTL/Telewest?

Question

It is amazing what a simple change of name can make people think. NTL had made steady improvements until most of it's service were reliable before it changed it's name.
NTL bought Virgin Mobile, Richard Branson got lots of NTL shares in the deal, and NTL/Telewest wanted a better reputatiion. I admire
their apirations though.

Have read that Branson got about 14% of the shares and is the biggest shareholder.

Answer 1

Hmmmm i wonder why all the news articles about the loss of Sky are always interviewing Richard Branson about it too.....wonder if he holds majority shares?
