Mersey Television
Mersey Television the specialist television company owned by Phil Redmond was acquired by ALL3MEDIA in 2005.
Deal Information
In 2002 LDC invested in Mersey TV and subsequently exited in a trade sale to ALL3MEDIA in June 2005.
The Mersey Television Company is an established and renowned producer of high quality television programmes. Founded by its Chairman, Phil Redmond, based in Liverpool in the North West of England, Mersey has been run by Phil and Alexis Redmond since 1982.
As the largest independent UK producer of drama, Mersey has a strong track record of technical innovation. The Company has achieved “icon” status in the North West and Mersey enjoys a deservedly high reputation as a “talent nursery,” having developed both a highly productive team in the business today and an equally impressive alumni of writers, directors and cast who helped to build and create the Mersey franchise over the years under the Redmond’s joint leadership.
Mersey TV’s award-winning Hollyoaks franchise is recognised and renowned for being the market leader in the highly valuable 16- to 24-year old audience category.
The Boards of Mersey and ALL3MEDIA determined that the acquisition consideration would not be disclosed by agreement of both parties.
