                                Grant of Options

YooMedia, the digital TV and wireless entertainment company, announces that on
10 October 2003 the Company granted David Docherty, director in charge of
YooMedia's e-government division, YooPublica, options over 1,000,000 1p ordinary
shares in the Company.  The exercise price is 31.2 pence, being the average
mid-market price for the previous five business days prior to the date of the
grant of options.

Michael Sinclair, Chairman and CEO of YooMedia commented, 'David was originally
appointed as a non-executive director of YooMedia to oversee our drive into the
e-government arena and foster the potential of Trigger TV.  Since joining us,
David has opened the eyes of the Company to the incredible opportunities that
both e-government and Trigger TV represent to YooMedia and its shareholders.
Consequently, the Board was very pleased when David agreed to become an
executive director of the Company.  The option package approved last week
follows a successful fundraising that provides a solid financial base to grow
these new areas of our business. This is an exciting time for us and our
shareholders and I look forward to reporting on our progress over the coming
months.'
