Default Richard Desmond Buys Ch5 for £103Million

http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Bus...el_5_This_Week


One of Richard Desmond's publications is the magazine OK!


Richard Desmond
is to buy Ch5 this Friday.

"Desmond and Gerhard Zeiler, RTL’s boss, have earmarked this Friday to announce the Channel Five deal, which as it stands will cost the Express owner just over £100m."


Not many have £100million
so its no wonder he has won it.



Sign Of The Times.

A Five employee said: "There's a real sense of anxiety and nervousness about what Desmond's going to do. We fear the heart of Five could be ripped out."

Desmond is going to Cut them down to the Bone
I hope some new shows appear.
