A BSkyB Dealers info program which was transmitted on Astra 19.2E. in late 1990, detailing the new lineup of the new Sky channels after BSkyB's merger with the defunct BSB (British Satellite Broadcasting).
The information in this program is interesting, from lineup of Sky channels on MArco Polo and Astra satellites, to a rundown of programs to be shown on all Sky channels, and market analysis of dish installations and Sky viewers' base in the UK at that time.
A fast mix of Sky and local channel Symbols such as NBC, Sky Soap, Sky Travel, Sky 2, Sky Movies Gold and Eurosport etc

News Corp's Rupert Murdoch is once again looking to consolidate his European pay-tv operations. BSkyB is in talks with its largest shareholder, 21st Century Fox to buy the stakes it owns in Sky Italy and Sky Germany. The Deal's Laura Board reports it could make 21st Century Fox a much more streamlined company if it takes cash instead of stock in BSkyB. Board says there would be cost and revenue synergies immediately if Fox sells its stakes in the two companies to BSkyB. Board says BSkyB is looking to do a deal sooner rather than later for fear the price will go higher.

Sports and movie fans, you have a new way to stream content, and its name is Now TV.
The Internet service from BSkyB aims to go up against services like Netflix, initially offering 11 different channels and 600 movies for streaming on Androids, iPhones, and other devices. Also included: Plenty of goods from Sky Sports, including soccer, cricket, rugby, and golf. Now TV will allow users to pay for single items or pony up a monthly fee, and company representatives say they hope to draw in new customers that aren't familiar with the British broadcasting network.
Of course, the company's monthly fee, at around $23, is much more expensive than that of Netflix. But even with tough competition—something BSkyB isn't used to considering the company's virtual monopoly of content across the pond—executives at the Murdoch-affiliated company are likely just happy to be in the headlines for something other than a hacking scandal.

What has become of the gloomy, majestic house in Rochester where the skeletal Miss Havisham resided? Does Joe Gargery’s cottage still stand in Chalk? And what became of the notorious Bowes Academy, the harshest of the Yorkshire schools now known to the world as Dotheboys Hall?
Sir Derek Jacobi for the very first time takes you on a journey through Charles Dickens' England, exploring the settings where the Victorian author’s most famous stories unravelled.
Discovering all the most important places, towns and cities that were the inspiration to some of the most famous settings in literature, we feature well over 100 locations, including the Cooling Church in Kent used in the opening chapter of Great Expectations and the almost forgotten London Roman Baths used by David Copperfield.
Many of the locations, such as the interior of 58 Lincoln's Inn Fields where Dickens first read in public, the All The Year Round offices in Covent Garden where he lived and worked and Gad's Hill in Kent, the last in a very long list of his homes, are simply not open to the public and have rarely been filmed.
Travelling from Portsmouth to Isle of Wight to numerous London locations, to Bury St Edmonds, Rochester and Chatham, to Broadstairs, Folkestone, and Barnard Castle to St George’s Hall in Liverpool, Derek Jacobi leads this mammoth expedition around Charles Dickens’ England before visiting the author's final resting place in Poets' Corner at Westminster Abbey.

With around 8,500 Sky staff working from several locations, the construction of a new campus at the company’s Isleworth site allowed the company to streamline operations and improve communications by condensing the number of staff buildings.
This was the UK’s largest glue laminated timber project and Prater was responsible for the design, testing and off-site engineering of the complete external envelope package. The scope of works included a 15,000 sqm pre-manufactured roofing system, accommodating 417 roof lights, as well as 10,000 sqm of external composite façade with an external rain screen cladding system.
Our in-house team was responsible for the roof design, carrying out a comprehensive programme of testing in relation to fire, acoustics and impact. Mock-ups were created both for approval on site as well as testing at various specialist laboratories.
The size and scale of the project and necessary build timescales meant that off-site manufacturing played a vital role – with the large roofing cassettes brought to site and craned into position. Off-site construction enabled us to logistically plan and deliver a project that not only satisfied the difficult build schedule but also contributed to overall health and safety, by limiting work on site.
The project also benefitted from 4D modelling to ensure effective communication of the access and logistics strategy as well as the on-site coordination of interface trades.

Sky (United Kingdom)
Sky UK Limited (formerly British Sky Broadcasting or BSkyB) is a British telecommunications company which serves the United Kingdom. Sky provides television and broadband internet services and fixed line telephone services to consumers and businesses in the United Kingdom. It is the UK's largest pay-TV broadcaster with 11 million customers as of 2015. It was the UK's most popular digital TV service until it was overtaken by Freeview in April 2007. Its corporate headquarters are based in Isleworth.
Formed in November 1990 by the equal merger of Sky Television and British Satellite Broadcasting, BSkyB became the UK's largest digital subscription television company. Following BSkyB's 2014 acquisition of Sky Italia and a majority 90.04% interest in Sky Deutschland in November 2014, its holding company British Sky Broadcasting Group plc changed its name to Sky plc. The United Kingdom operations also changed the company name from British Sky Broadcasting Limited to Sky UK Limited, still trading as Sky.

What has become of the gloomy, majestic house in Rochester where the skeletal Miss Havisham resided? Does Joe Gargery’s cottage still stand in Chalk? And what became of the notorious Bowes Academy, the harshest of the Yorkshire schools now known to the world as Dotheboys Hall?
Sir Derek Jacobi for the very first time takes you on a journey through Charles Dickens' England, exploring the settings where the Victorian author’s most famous stories unravelled.
Discovering all the most important places, towns and cities that were the inspiration to some of the most famous settings in literature, we feature well over 100 locations, including the Cooling Church in Kent used in the opening chapter of Great Expectations and the almost forgotten London Roman Baths used by David Copperfield.
Many of the locations, such as the interior of 58 Lincoln's Inn Fields where Dickens first read in public, the All The Year Round offices in Covent Garden where he lived and worked and Gad's Hill in Kent, the last in a very long list of his homes, are simply not open to the public and have rarely been filmed.
Travelling from Portsmouth to Isle of Wight to numerous London locations, to Bury St Edmonds, Rochester and Chatham, to Broadstairs, Folkestone, and Barnard Castle to St George’s Hall in Liverpool, Derek Jacobi leads this mammoth expedition around Charles Dickens’ England before visiting the author's final resting place in Poets' Corner at Westminster Abbey.

With around 8,500 Sky staff working from several locations, the construction of a new campus at the company’s Isleworth site allowed the company to streamline operations and improve communications by condensing the number of staff buildings.
This was the UK’s largest glue laminated timber project and Prater was responsible for the design, testing and off-site engineering of the complete external envelope package. The scope of works included a 15,000 sqm pre-manufactured roofing system, accommodating 417 roof lights, as well as 10,000 sqm of external composite façade with an external rain screen cladding system.
Our in-house team was responsible for the roof design, carrying out a comprehensive programme of testing in relation to fire, acoustics and impact. Mock-ups were created both for approval on site as well as testing at various specialist laboratories.
The size and scale of the project and necessary build timescales meant that off-site manufacturing played a vital role – with the large roofing cassettes brought to site and craned into position. Off-site construction enabled us to logistically plan and deliver a project that not only satisfied the difficult build schedule but also contributed to overall health and safety, by limiting work on site.
The project also benefitted from 4D modelling to ensure effective communication of the access and logistics strategy as well as the on-site coordination of interface trades.

With around 8,500 Sky staff working from several locations, the construction of a new campus at the company’s Isleworth site allowed the company to streamline operations and improve communications by condensing the number of staff buildings.
This was the UK’s largest glue laminated timber project and Prater was responsible for the design, testing and off-site engineering of the complete external envelope package. The scope of works included a 15,000 sqm pre-manufactured roofing system, accommodating 417 roof lights, as well as 10,000 sqm of external composite façade with an external rain screen cladding system.
