  • The Edmonds Effect: Noel Is the Real Deal on Amazon.Co.Uk
    The Edmonds Effect: Noel is the real deal on Amazon.co.uk May 26, 2006 May 26, 2006, London: It started when sales of an unknown book called The Cosmic Ordering Service soared after Noel Edmonds gave it his backing - and now according to Amazon.co.uk, he seems to be working his magic again with the Deal or No Deal boardgame. The game is available on pre-order at Amazon, where it is outselling other pre-order games by 10 to 1 and is set to be the online retailer's biggest selling board game this Christmas. With more than 3 months till release, the home version of Edmonds' popular TV programme Deal or No Deal has seen a 400% sales increase on Amazon.co.uk in the past 4 weeks. In April, a mention of The Cosmic Ordering Service by Edmonds in an interview caused the book to leap to the top of the Amazon.co.uk Hot 100 books chart. "We foolishly thought that was it after Noel's House Party and Mr Blobby...how wrong we were," says Paul Sanders, Amazon.co.uk Senior Toys Buyer. "The success of Deal or No Deal shows that everything he touches right now seems to be turning to gold. I wouldn't be surprised to see the game under a few Christmas trees this year." For further information please contact the Amazon.co.uk press office on 020 8636 9280. About Amazon.co.uk Amazon.co.uk opened its virtual doors in October 1998, and strives to be the world's most customer-centric company, where customers can find and discover anything they might want to buy online.

  • The History of the Development of British Satellite Broadcasting Policy, 1977-1992
    THE HISTORY OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF BRITISH SATELLITE BROADCASTING POLICY, 1977-1992 Windsor John Holden —......., Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of PhD University of Leeds, Institute of Communications Studies July, 1998 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others ABSTRACT This thesis traces the development of British satellite broadcasting policy, from the early proposals drawn up by the Home Office following the UK's allocation of five direct broadcast by satellite (DBS) frequencies at the 1977 World Administrative Radio Conference (WARC), through the successive, abortive DBS initiatives of the BBC and the "Club of 21", to the short-lived service provided by British Satellite Broadcasting (BSB). It also details at length the history of Sky Television, an organisation that operated beyond the parameters of existing legislation, which successfully competed (and merged) with BSB, and which shaped the way in which policy was developed. It contends that throughout the 1980s satellite broadcasting policy ceased to drive and became driven, and that the failure of policy-making in this time can be ascribed to conflict on ideological, governmental and organisational levels. Finally, it considers the impact that satellite broadcasting has had upon the British broadcasting structure as a whole. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract i Contents ii Acknowledgements 1 INTRODUCTION 3 British broadcasting policy - a brief history

  • The Conflict in Iraq 23 MAY 2003
    RESEARCH PAPER 03/50 The Conflict in Iraq 23 MAY 2003 Military operations to remove the Iraqi regime from power (Operation Iraqi Freedom) began officially at 0234 GMT on 20 March 2003. Coalition forces advanced rapidly into Iraq, encountering sporadic resistance from Iraqi military and paramilitary forces. By mid-April major combat operations had come to an end, with coalition forces in effective control of the whole country, including the capital Baghdad. This paper provides a summary of events in the build- up to the conflict, a general outline of the main developments during the military campaign between 20 March and mid April 2003 and an initial post-conflict assessment of the conduct of operations.
