Got this today. Not a definite but definitely reason for hope.

Hi Future ex-licence-payer

Hopefully some news soon, as the big TV festival, Mipcom, has just been
in full swing. Our acquisitions department hadn't seen a copy previous
to this - for which you can't really blame us, to be honest - blame
Hensons for not getting one to us more quickly!

All the best

Can it be???!

Oh gosh, I can the voices in my head singing Hallelujah, but I am not going to build my hopes up yet, otherwise it'll feel like a huge kick in the ball's when it doesn't come out.

Probably hoping they can keep you on just past licence renewal date.

sounds like they really have been waiting (with anticipation) to see a copy first, and are hoping that it lives up to the hype so they can justify purchasing it.....or is that just reading too much into it.........*gets everso slightly excited here....

ETA a quick check on the Mipcom website database and indeed The Jim Henson Company is there.....Mipcom 2004 (http://www.mipcom.com/App/homepage.cfm?eid=100400&vccriteriasettings=&appname=100400&moduleid=277&fuseaction=CompanySearch.resultSearchForm&bAdvancedSearch=false&CountryID=0&ContinentID=0&participantType=&companyName=henson+&Submit5=Search)
The event ran from the 4th to the 8th of october....waits impatiently
