                               DIRECTORATE CHANGE

The Board of Avesco plc ("Avesco" or the "Company") announced on 14 November
2003 that David Brocksom, the finance director of Avesco, would be leaving the
Company to join Pace Micro Technology plc in early 2004.  Avesco is now able to
confirm that David's departure date will be 31 January 2004.

On 30 December 2003, the Company announced proposals for the demerger of its
core business, being the provision of specialist services to the corporate
presentation, entertainment and broadcast markets (the "Core Business"), while
retaining its Media Rights Business, which owns both a 49% interest in Complete
Communications Corporation Limited (a leading producer of light entertainment
shows including "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?") and a 23.6% interest in Medal
Entertainment and Media plc.

Following completion of the demerger, which is expected to occur on 19 February
2004, Cameron Maxwell, who is currently a non-executive of Avesco, will be
appointed as executive finance director of InvestinMedia plc (as Avesco plc will
then be renamed).

Kevin John Allen, aged 48, will, pending the appointment of a full-time finance
director, act as interim finance director of New Avesco plc, the company which
will following completion of the demerger be the new holding company for the
Core Business and which will be renamed as Avesco plc.

Further information in respect of Mr Maxwell and Mr Allen is contained in the
Avesco shareholder circular and the New Avesco plc AIM admission document, which
were both posted to Avesco shareholders on 30 December 2003.  The New Avesco plc
AIM admission document contains all information relating to Mr Allen that is
required to be disclosed pursuant to Rule 15 and paragraph (f) of Schedule Two
of the AIM Rules.
