Graham talks to legendary businessman Gerald Ratner, the former CEO of Ratner’s and H Samuel, whose infamous speech to the Institute of Directors led to him losing everything almost overnight.
They discuss his book, some of his famous friends and rivalries and of course that speech, its consequences for him personally and how he managed to bounce back.
Graham also has a special announcement towards the end of the show.
