Sirius

Sirius UK is a UK media company, based in Bradford, West Yorkshire. Originally known simply as Sirius Group (Broadcasting division now known as Sirius Broadcasting International, and whole company known as Sirius Enterprises) this company has had a share in various broadcasters since Sirius entered television in 1983, after the start of the sattelite channel, "The Sirius Channel". They were known to have a share with Anglia from 1988 to 1994, and also made a bid for the north west franchise in the 1991 franchise round (bid known as Sirius NW). However, a dispute between chairman James Greenwood and controller of "Sirius Entertainment" (previously known as The Sirius Channel) forced them to bail out. However, later on through the 90's, they had launched 4 channels on sattelite, and later one of the first channels on Sky Digital.
