Blood on the Carpet: Blood, Sweaters and Sears

on BBC Two England

The series about corporate feuds in the world of big business returns with six new programmes.

Tonight's first episode charts the relationship between Luciano Benetton, head of the clothing corporation, and fashion photographer Oliviero Toscani. Toscani's adverts for Benetton became more and more controversial, but Benetton continued to stick with his image-maker. The crunch came when Toscani's photos of prisoners on death row scuppered a multi-million dollar deal with US retailers Sears.
