An in-depth look at the German economy, as growth slows in the European giant

An in-depth look at the German economy, as growth slows in the European giant. Vivienne Nunis is joined by BBC correspondent Damien McGuiness in Berlin.

With inflation high, consumer sentiment low and business activity contracting in Germany, we ask if two decades of prosperity in the European powerhouse are at an end.

In a special programme, Vivienne Nunis is joined by BBC correspondent Damien McGuiness in Berlin to discuss the core issues.

We hear from Thilo Brodtmann, head of Germany's largest industrial association, the VDMA.  Thorsten Schmidt, CEO of Heller Machine Tools in Nürtingen gives us his view on the recent slowdown in manufacturing output.
