Astra geosat pic

Earlier this week I recorded nova RS Oph in predawn sky and captured two geostationary communication/TV sats on the frame.

Pic below is same region of sky before midnight last night with static camera capturing 7 in the Astra series used by Sky TV etc. Same taken awhile back via 12"SCT at http://www.astroman.fsnet.co.uk/sat.htm

Sat at top of frame in unknown to me - any clues where to reference it?
