Bush Radio Ernesettle Plymouth The company produced televisions and other electrical goods as well as radios and went through several incarnations with company mergers and take-overs, including Rank, Murphy and ultimately Toshiba. 1932 Company founded by Gilbert Darnley-Smith. Partly owned by Gaumont British 1936 Three types of televisor receiving sets (models T5, T6 and T7) made for Baird Television 1945 Bush Radio merged with Cinema-Television Ltd, both subsidiaries of the Gaumont British Picture Corporation part of J. Arthur Rank's Odeon Theatres Ltd The Bush company is thought to have taken its name from Shepherd's Bush in London, where the company was based in the 1930s. Having outgrown their London premises, in June 1949 the company opened a new factory at Ernesettle, Plymouth by which time they had already been taken over by the Rank Organisation. 1956 described as a wholly owned subsidiary of Cinema-Television which is part of the Rank Organisation 1962 The company rebranded as Rank Bush Murphy when they merged with Murphy Radio 1963 Bush units were still being produced at Plymouth. 1980s the name disappeared for a time in the 1980s, following the 1978 alliance formed with Toshiba and another renaming, this time as Rank Toshiba. Two years later the joint arrangement ended and Toshiba took over at Ernesettle, and the manufacture of television became the sole focus of the production lines. As a quite separate matter regarding only the brand and the old designs- In November 2008, the Bush brand name, along with Alba, were purchased by Home Retail Group, owners of Argos and the Bush brand was been revived, and the name covers a wide range of electrical goods, including various reproductions of classic fifties and sixties Bush radio sets. Manufacture is in China and Turkey. Personal note- the first radio in our household was a cream bakelite Bush EBS3.
