Business troubleshooter Sir Gerry Robinson will investigate Britain’s ailing car industry on BBC television. In a “Money Programme” special, "Gerry Robinson's Car Crash" he gets stuck in on the production line at Nissan’s Sunderland factory, test-drives the world’s first electric sports car, challenges Lord Mandelson on the Government’s efforts to lead Britain’s car industry through the recession, and asks Sir James Dyson whether Britain should be in the business of manufacturing at all.
Sir Gerry previously presented a series on the NHS “I’ll Show Them Who’s Boss”.
