BBC dramatizes Lehman collapse
The collapse of Wall Street bank Lehman Brothers is being dramatized by the British Broadcasting Corp (BBC) in a made-for-TV movie to be shown around October.
The Last Days of Lehman Brothers will show Lehman's much-lambasted chief executive Dick Fuld as he attempts to strike a last-ditch rescue deal for the bank, the BBC said on Wednesday.
The failure of Lehman last September, after which a string of lenders across the world buckled, helped trigger such a severe loss of confidence in global finances it plunged the world into the worst recession since World War Two.
