Earlier this year Manifest was approached by Channel 4's Dispatches documentary team to help them with a review of executive pay following the revelations of Sir Fred Goodwin's pension arrangements. In this episode, "Britain's Bankers: Still Cashing In", Manifest works with journalist Jane Moore to help her understand the complexities of executive pay and look back over the past decade to see how pay at UK banks grew exponentially.

The programme was first aired on Monday, 18th May at 8pm and will be available until the end of June at 4oD Catch-Up.
