If you’re the new in-house lawyer in charge of TV content carriage for a major cable operator, an appreciation for TV can certainly come in handy. After a nearly 15-year career in media and intellectual property law, self-described film and TV enthusiast Charlotte McMillan has joined the U.K.–based Virgin Media Inc. as its new assistant general counsel. At Virgin, she’ll report to GC Bryan Hall and establish a team of four attorneys to focus on TV content carriage—meaning she’ll have a hand in bringing channels and programs to the company’s U.K. subscribers.
Because Virgin also provides broadband Internet and mobile phone services, McMillan will also focus on acquiring content for the company’s cross-platform strategy and dealing with any regulatory issues that crop up under the U.K. regulatory agency, the Office of Communications.
