Episode 1
A documentary by Robert Peston, a financial correspondent with the BBC. With his take on how the West came to be in the financial dire straights in which it now finds itself. He highlights the differing attitudes toward debt and saving between Chinese people and those in the UK. In the past Robert Peston has been accused of being too close to the banks and bankers, and this documentary definitely lets them off lightly. But, it is still an interesting piece and useful in it's own way.
Episode 2
what went wrong with the economies and finances of the west. In my description of part 1 I said He had been soft on the banks, this is dealt with in this episode.
