  • BFI Announces First Ever Blu-Ray/DVD Release of Pet Shop Boys' It Couldn
    BFI announces first ever Blu-ray/DVD release of Pet Shop Boys’ It Couldn’t Happen Here on 15 June 2020 Special preview screening with Q&A at BFI Southbank on 3 April 13 February 2020 – The BFI is delighted to be working with Pet Shop Boys on the forthcoming re-release of their feature film IT COULDN’T HAPPEN HERE (1987), directed by Jack Bond and starring Neil Tennant, Chris Lowe, Joss Ackland and Barbara Windsor. Unavailable worldwide for 30 years, the film has been newly remastered by the BFI from a 4K scan for release in a Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD set on 15 June 2020. The re-release will be launched with a special preview screening at BFI Southbank on 3 April 2020 at 20:10 in NFT1, preceded by an on-stage Q&A with Neil Tennant, Jack Bond and choreographer Arlene Phillips. (See below for ticket details). Originally conceived as an hour-long video based on Pet Shop Boys’ 1987 album Actually, IT COULDN’T HAPPEN HERE turned into a full-scale feature film that finds Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe on an extraordinary adventure from the coast to London, encountering a curious array of eccentric characters along the way. With pop surrealism meeting the classic road movie, it features chart-topping singles from the duo’s first two studio albums, including ‘West End girls’, ‘It’s a sin’ and ‘Always on my mind’. IT COULDN’T HAPPEN HERE was released in UK cinemas in July 1988 and subsequently on VHS video, but has never had a DVD or Blu-ray release before.

  • Barnes & Noble
    Short Case Barnes & Noble Turning the page to compete in a digital book market This case was written by Joachim Stonig (University of St. Gallen). It is intended to be used as the basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of a management situation. The case was compiled from published sources. © Joachim Stonig, January 2020, Version 1.1, University of St. Gallen No part of this publication may be copied, stored, transmitted, reproduced or distributed in any form or medium whatsoever without the permission of the copyright owner. 1 In June 2019, investment firm Elliott Management announced that it would acquire Barnes & 1 Noble for about $683 million and take the company private.0F The largest U.S. book retailer had experienced a long decline over the last decade. The number of stores dropped by more than 100 since their peak in 2009, from 726 to 630 in 2018, and revenue fell by more than $2 billion in the same timeframe. James Daunt, who runs the British bookseller Waterstones since 2011, became CEO of the ailing company. James Daunt is known to be book enthusiast who believes in the cultural and emotional value of print. With the funds from Elliott and less short-term financial pressure from the stock market, he hopes to change the fortunes of Barnes & Noble. His initial assessment of the company, however, was less than flattering: “Frankly, at the moment you want to love Barnes & Noble, but when you leave the store you feel mildly betrayed. […] Not massively, but mildly.

Shoppers are still price sensitive, driving greater competition as newer, more agile entrants undercut traditional leaders in many parts of the industry. Consumers are continually demanding more – better prices, better service and a better experience. Retailers that cannot offer this across every channel risk losing out to those that are able to understand and meet customer needs. Over the past five years the Eptica Multichannel Customer

  • Eu & Uk Competition Law Bulletin
    EU & UK COMPETITION LAW BULLETIN 7 May 2009 Please click on the following links to go directly to your area of interest: Mergers State Aid Anti-trust Market Investigations Litigation OFT clears proposed acquisition of 15 former Zavvi stores by HMV plc on basis of 'failing firm defence' The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) has cleared the proposed acquisition of fifteen former Zavvi stores by HMV plc on the basis of the 'failing firm defence'. Zavvi, formerly a leading national retailer of entertainment products, was formed after a management buy out of the Virgin Megastore division of the Virgin Group in September 2007, but went into administration at the end of last year. This case is particularly interesting because, prior to Zavvi going into administration, both it and HMV were leading national retailers of entertainment products, with overlapping stores in a large number of local areas across the UK. However, the application of the failing firm defence means that the Zavvi acquisition is cleared without the OFT needing to conduct a detailed market analysis under its normal merger control procedure. What is the failing firm defence? The ‘failing firm defence’ in the UK is a defence under the Enterprise Act 2002 which parties to a merger may seek to rely on to persuade the OFT that a merger raising substantive competition concerns should be cleared and not, therefore, referred to the Competition Commission (CC) on the basis that the target business will exit the market if the merger does not go ahead. The rationale for accepting such claims is therefore that any harm to competition would result even without the merger, and so should not be attributed to it.

    Re-imagining the high street Escape from Clone Town Britain The 2010 Clone Town Report nef is an independent think-and-do tank that inspires and demonstrates real economic well-being. We aim to improve quality of life by promoting innovative solutions that challenge mainstream thinking on economic, environmental and social issues. We work in partnership and put people and the planet first. A report from the Connected Economies Team nef (the new economics foundation) is a registered charity founded in 1986 by the leaders of The Other Economic Summit (TOES), which forced issues such as international debt onto the agenda of the G8 summit meetings. It has taken a lead in helping establish new coalitions and organisations such as the Jubilee 2000 debt campaign; the Ethical Trading Initiative; the UK Social Investment Forum; and new ways to measure social and economic well-being.

Is the spread of clone towns and the creeping homogenisation of the high street anything more than an aesthetic blight? We think so. Yes, distinctiveness and a sense of place matter to people. Without character in our urban centres, living history and visible proof that we can in some way shape and influence our living environment we become alienated in the very places that we should feel at home.
