                 Entertainment Rights Plc Signs North American

                      Video and DVD Distribution Agreement



Entertainment Rights Plc, one of the UK's leading media groups specialising in
the ownership of high quality children's and family programming, characters and
brands, announced today that it has signed an exclusive distribution arrangement
with Rhino Home Video, a division of Warner Strategic Marketing for the North
American home video and DVD distribution rights to Hasbro Inc.'s highly popular
Transformers Armada animated television series.



In November 2002, the Hasbro Properties Group licensed the international
television rights (excluding North America) and all worldwide video and DVD
rights (including North America) for its Transformers Armada television series
to Entertainment Rights. Entertainment Rights have to date achieved substantial
sales and secured prime broadcasters for Transformers Armada in over 70
countries worldwide including Sky One and GMTV in the UK, Teletoon in France,
Cartoon Network and Telecinco in Spain, Fox Kids in Italy and Cartoon Network in
Australia.  Transformers Armada currently airs in the U.S. on Cartoon Network
six times per week.



Commenting, Mike Heap CEO of Entertainment Rights said, "This key US contract
with Rhino further highlights our ability to work closely with global companies
and builds on the success that we have had with Hasbro's Transformers Armada
brand. In just seven months we have already achieved prime broadcasting slots
and key video and DVD partners throughout the world."



Current trading within the Group remains in line with the Directors'
expectations. Good progress continues to be made in both the development of the
Company's wholly owned properties and third party portfolio. Entertainment
Rights will announce its interim results on 16 September.
