HMV, Comet and Blockbuster were just some of the household names that fell into administration during this period.

Banks and other secured lenders got at least £365m and about £123m was spent on fees and other bills.

Administrators earned £33m from the failures, with some charging up to £950 an hour. Only £14m went to unsecured creditors.

surprising enough an awful lot went to the administrators, now how the hell do you spend that much if the company has decent accounts?

how did they fail? too pricey, too lazy.
