Credit Crash Britain: HBOS - Breaking the Bank
BBC 2 Northern Ireland (Sky ch. 142)
Friday 31st October 2008
Time: 7:00pm to 8:00pm

Just before you go trick or treating for the night, you could catch this, the first part of a special five-part series from the excellent Money Programme examining different aspects of the credit crunch. Tonight, investigating the extraordinary fall of HBOS, they examine the seismic changes that swept through the UK's banking industry. They also examine the role short-selling has played and ask if regulators could have stepped in earlier to protect the bank. If the merger goes ahead, who will be the winners and losers after the creation of this UK mega-bank?
