Work in progress edit

This article represents work in progress. I started from the Private Eye article, to hive off the various pieces which deal with the magazine's comments about prominent businessmen. On investigation, I found that the articles for the Sixties businessmen whose activities they commented on are poor or non-existent. In particular, Emil Savundra which I fixed, Jim Slater, John Bloom and Rolls Razor as well as Brentford Nylons. This one is particularly interesting, as it involves an entrepreneur who went bust in Northern Ireland, which was tied up with the troubles and was a precursor to de Lorean. It also ties in to television advertising in the early days. There are several sources to write from, and it is taking longer than I anticipated. To be honest, I am surprised that the article has not already been written. I cannot guarantee to get finished in five days, but it should not be long now.
