There are 60M+ TV users in the UK

users maybe, but not subscribers/customers. The population of the UK is around 60M, so that would probably make about 20M actual homes where people might subscribe, at most.
Then you have to split that 20M between all the other competitors. I dont know what that would come to, but even if it was 1/3 for C&W, that would only be about 10% of your 60M number you started with.
