Old Gold Media are a brand new company set up by someone who was at Fremantle for 25 years.

There's also this info from an industry newsletter back in January.

"

Another industry stalwart, Pete Kalhan, who had been at the [Freemantle] company since its days as Pearson, has left Fremantle and is starting his own business, Old Gold Media (he is, after all, a Wolves fan). Fremantle, of course, had a vast film library and worked closely with imprints such as Network Distributing, which sadly fell into administration last year, and other Indies such as Fabulous Films. The other associated labels will now go through Spirit. Fremantle owns the vast Thames catalogue as well as assorted film libraries. More news on Pete Kalhan’s new operation will follow shortly."

Another new title added to the May roster.

Jack the Ripper on dvd and Blu-ray.

Is releasing the old Network catalogue sustainable?

I picked Jack the Ripper up years ago for a fiver. Network sold it so cheap I'm pretty sure at least 90% of the people who wanted it must already have it.

Sounds like they have the Fremantle universe to go at so who knows.

As far as i am aware that red cased restored edition of Jack the Ripper never sold for a fiver.

I'd have bought it to replace my dvd if it had.

Maybe I'm confusing it with something else, but I did pick it up very cheaply in one of their sales. If you still haven't got it Dem, you should. I don't know how it stacks up against the DVD but it looks really nice in BR and I was surprised at how well it held my attention for the long running time.

Hopefully, they will be able to release enough new stuff to supplement the previous Network releases?
