          -------------------

          Security:    Common Stock, $1.00 Par Value ("Common Stock")

          Issuer:      The Actava Group Inc., formerly Fuqua Industries, Inc., 
                       ("Actava"), a Delaware corporation

          Address:     4900 Georgia-Pacific Center
                       Atlanta, GA  30303

Item 2.   Identity and Background.
          -----------------------

     This Amendment No. 11 to Schedule 13D is being filed by Triton Group Ltd. 
("Triton"), a Delaware corporation (as successor to Intermark, Inc.). The 
principal business and offices of Triton are located at 550 West C Street, 18th 
Floor, San Diego, CA  92101.

     There is no change to the remaining information contained in Item 2 of 
Schedule 13D, as amended to date.

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
          -------------------------------------------------

     There is no change to the information contained in Item 3 of Schedule 13D, 
as amended to date.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.
          ----------------------

     The information set forth in Item 4 of Triton's Schedule 13D, as amended, 
is hereby amended as follows:

         On August 31, 1994, The Actava Group Inc. entered into letters of
     intent relating to the proposed combination with Orion Pictures
     Corporation, MCEG Sterling Incorporated and Metromedia International
     Telecommunications Inc. Under the announced proposal the combined
     enterprise is to be named Metromedia International Group, Inc. and would be
     a global media, entertainment and communications company. As proposed,
     Metromedia Company and its affiliates, including John W. Kluge, would
     control in excess of 50% of the voting power of the surviving entity.

                               Page 3 of 5 Pages

         Triton's review of preliminary materials regarding this combination and
   representations by Actava's President and CEO lead Triton to believe at this
   time that this combination represents a highly speculative and risky venture.
   As Actava's largest shareholder, Triton is opposed to this proposed
   transaction and is encouraging Actava's Board of Directors and management to
   evaluate other alternative business strategies and to exercise their
   obligations diligently under Delaware law relating to the sale of the
   company.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
          -------------------------------------

     There is no change to the information contained in Item 5 of Schedule 13D 
as amended to date.

Item 6.   Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect
          ---------------------------------------------------------------------
          to Securities of the Issuer.
          ---------------------------

     There is no change to the information contained in Item 6 of Schedule 13D 
as amended to date.

Item 7.   Material to be Filed as Exhibits.
          --------------------------------

          None.
