Who owns/owned the babe channels? (Current & Former)?

thought i would list who owns the channels as it's something that people seem unsure about

Babestation-

906 - Cellcast Group
909 - Grandiose Limited
910 - Escape Channel Limited

Elite-

914 - Playboy Enterprises
920 - Northern & Shell(TVX)
921 - Northern & Shell(TVX)
932 - Playboy Enterprises
965 - Wicked TV

RLC-

902 - Playboy Enterprises
911 - Playboy Enterprises
948 - Playboy Enterprises
950 - Playboy Enterprises

Storm-

966 - Chat Central Ltd

xxXpanded TV-

931 - Txt Me TV Limited

Thought i'd add the licence holder/ownership details of channels curently broadcasting live phone line babe channels on Freeview .

Babestation

FV Ch 94 - Square 1 Management Limited (Ofcom licence)
FV Ch 95 - Cellcast (NICAM licence)
FV Ch 96 - Cellcast (NICAM licence)
FV Ch 97 - Square 1 Management Limited (Ofcom licence)

Elite

FV Ch 192 - Northern & Shell (TVX/Red Hot) (Ofcom licence)

{edit} edited to show licence details of the channels , "NICAM" is the Dutch equivalent of Ofcom

To supplement/refine the above listings......

RLC - (Daytime)

900 - Playboy Enterprises

ChatGirl /Asian Connections - (Daytime)

901 - Playboy Enterprises

Elite - (Daytime)

903 - Northern & Shell (TVX)
905 - Northern & Shell (TVX)
932 - Playboy Enterprises, shut down 3 weeks ago.
933 - Northern & Shell (TVX)

Asian Connections - (Daytime)

916 - Playboy Enterprises

All the above are Playboy or TVX nightshow encrypted/box office channels.

EDIT Re my reference to SKY932, it was Sky BoxOffice XXXGirls until 3 weeks ago then deleted from EPG, I've just checked & noticed it has now been reinstated on EPG as a 24/7 Elite channel, so Elite are now running 5 nighttime & 8 daytime channels.

Just thought i'd update the freeview babe channels licence holder/owner info to add the new Playboy/RLC channel .
So the freeview line up is now as follows

Babestation

FV Ch 94 - Square 1 Management Limited (Ofcom licence)
FV Ch 95 - Cellcast (NICAM licence)
FV Ch 96 - Cellcast (NICAM licence)
FV Ch 97 - Square 1 Management Limited (Ofcom licence)

Elite

FV Ch 192 - Northern & Shell (TVX/Red Hot) (Ofcom licence)

Playboy/RLC

FV Ch 194 - Playboy Enterprises (Ofcom licence)

I find it very intreguing that you can get onto and broadcast on the UK digital system with a Dutch NICAM licence cos the Dutch government sure as hell won't let you broadcast on their own terrestrial digital tv system to the Netherlands using a UK based OFCOM licence!

This site shows up to date ownership/parent company's of the Sky Adult channels, i don't know how accurate it is though

Is there a connection between Babestation and The Daily Sport, because I found this site with the Daily Sport logo over the picture :

That site used to run the online stream for the Sport channels. After the Sport channels sold out to Bluebird the site started running the Babestation stream instead.

A few years ago when Sexstation was a Cellcast Sky TV Babe channel, the girls at one point used to wear Daily Sport tee shirts and promote the news paper, iv'e no idea why .

The Sport xxx channels didn't sell out to Bluebird, Bluebird never owned a channel or Ofcom licence, Satellite Entertainment Limited was the owner of the Sport channels, and was still the company in charge of the channels and owner of the licence even when Bluebird used to broadcast on them, hence why SEL got the fines when BB broke the rules .

as it's been a while since the last one here is a updated list of who has the licence for each channel
