Title: Mary
Queen of the High Street
Description:
Retail expert Mary Portas fights for Britain’s failing
high
streets. Mary travels to Liskeard in Cornwall, where
her fast
pace and direct approach meets the laid-back
Cornish attitude to life. She believes that the town’s
high
street needs to make the most of its locally produced
food
to differentiate itself from the supermarket and give
customers a reason to come back into town. Will the town’s
shopowners embrace her suggestions, or is Mary’s project
doomed?

Title:
Bankers: Payback Time
Description:
Documentary series telling the inside story of the banking
industry. The eye-opening story of how Britain’s
multi-billion pound financial mis-selling scandal came
about. With first-hand accounts from bank bosses, sales
staff, politicians and customers, the film charts three
decades of extraordinary changes inside our high street
banks. They brought us convenient
free banking services,
easy
credit and paid their way at the centre of the
nation’s economy. But as bankers now candidly admit, along
the
way they abused the trust of their customers and
sacrificed long-term relationships for quick profits. The
fallout from mis-selling has driven some small business
owners into financial distress. RBS chairman Sir Philip
Hampton, Lloyds Group CEO Antonio Horta
Osorio, the
archbishop
of Canterbury and Gillian Tett dissect the causes
of
this banking crisis and ask how such a dysfunctional
system can be rebuilt for the future

Title: The
Apprentice
Episode: Farm
Shop
Description:
Business competition. The fight for Lord Sugar’s
investment continues with farmyard fun, as this task sees
the
candidates open their own farm shops. The hopefuls swap
their
high heels and city brogues for wellies as they set
off
to source stock from farms across the south east. One
team
decides to specialize in pricey buffalo produce, while
the
others try to churn a profit from premium milk. The
teams divide to search the Home Counties for farm fresh
produce, but some are left high and dry when they are sent
shopping on a shoestring; and there is trouble for others as
they find out - with minutes to spare -
that stock levels
are
dangerously low. On sales day, the candidates set up
shop
in trendy east London; one team finds their
takeaway’s soups and spuds tricky to shift, while the
other team finds there is an appetite for milkshakes. One
candidate takes a gamble by using the task to prove their
business idea for Lord Sugar works. In the boardroom, even
the winning team gets a telling off. The
losing team leaves
Lord
Sugar with a dilemma, but eventually one candidate
faces the firing finger and hears the words ’You’re
fired!’
