Item 5.       Other Events.

              As previously reported, Enstar Income Program II-1, L.P. (the
"Partnership"), together with certain affiliates (collectively, the "Selling
Partnerships"), entered into a purchase and sale agreement, dated as of August
8, 2000, as amended as of September 29, 2000 (the "Agreement"), with Multimedia
Acquisition Corp., an affiliate of Gans Multimedia Partnership ("Gans"). The
Agreement provided for Gans to acquire the assets comprising the Partnership's
Taylorville, Illinois cable system, as well as certain assets of the other
Selling Partnerships.

              Following a series of discussion and meetings, the Partnership and
Gans have determined that they will not be able to agree on certain further
amendments to the Agreement that are required in order to satisfy conditions
precedent to close the transaction. In light of this, present economic and
financial market conditions, and their impact on Gans' inability to arrange
financing in order to close the acquisition, on April 18, 2001 the parties
agreed to terminate the Agreement.

              The Partnership's general partner will continue to operate the
Partnership's cable television systems and will continue to investigate
potential divestiture transactions for the benefit of its Unitholders.

              On December 7, 2000, the Partnership filed a Preliminary Consent
Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to which the
Partnership's general partner would solicit consents from the limited partners
to approve the Agreement. In light of the foregoing events, the Partnership has
decided at this time to withdraw the Preliminary Consent Statement.
