Commercial Breaks

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

A series that follows the fortunes of entrepreneurs around the world as their stories unfold.
Who Dares, Wins Readers? The inside story of this summer's bizarre circulation war between Fleet Street's tabloids.
Last week's Commercial Breaks showed how multi-millionnaire Robert Maxwell bought the Daily Mirror.
He immediately vowed to topple the Sun as Britain's top-selling tabloid. This programme goes behind the scenes as Maxwell controls every detail of his campaign, from directing his own commercials to cross-examining his circulation managers.
