Telewest 'not planning more job cuts'

"About a third of Telewest's top 60 managers have been offered redundancy terms"

Sky One on Ess+ or Ess?

"The Telewest website also now shows it available in Essential Plus and above, which is different to what they had up last week."

 

Well, it seemed a good idea, but as it says later in the thread, what would be left in essential Plus if Sky One moved down? Not a lot. So no need for that pack.

1,000 jobs under threat at Telewest

"Executives expect the jobs to be shed gradually over the next 12-15 months"

 

The story's everywhere.

Telewest Makes More Cuts

"A source familiar with the company said another 1,000 jobs could go by the end of next year, reducing the work force to about 8,000.

Asked about this, managing director Charles Burdick said: "There are no specific cuts planned. (But) through attrition, working smarter, focusing on costs ... we will have a smaller workforce next year.""

Scuts can be good and bad. Here, this whole block is scheduled for demolition. Half the flats are empty. To me, if the area was just cleaned up a little it would be a good place to live. Certainly the few people I've met who live there are fine, cheery people. Though admittedly, under 30, well under 30.

The big board. every day we add our scores. Everyday, everybody in the checks to see who's where in the race to be beast rep.
