Game industry in West Yorkshire

Because of personal reasons I recently started looking around for a new job. The idea of all the game companies being mainly spread around the London area was always in the back of my head and it was a bit disencouraging thinking that I wouldn't be able to get my foot on the industry before finishing this degree. After looking around I found out that there are quite a few companies around the Yorkshire area; in fact, more that what I expected. The website of Game Republic was quite helpful in this sense as the list of affiliate companies is quite large. Now some of them might be independent groups, but the list grows all the way to big companies like Rockstar Leeds.
I'll leave a list of the main companies and a link to their website:

Weaseltron entertainment
Sumo digital
Red Kite games
JAW (Just add water)
4 door lemon
Dubit Limited
Double eleven
Rockstar Games Leeds
Team 17 


I've also contemplated some internships down south, as there seems to be more of them, but due to my 'legal' situation I'm afraid I'll have to pass on that.
So far I've applied for most of them, but haven't heard much back :(   (crossing fingers)
