Debenhams falls into administration

The video discusses the failed attempts by Mike Ashley to acquire Debenhams, which has now entered administration. Despite being the largest shareholder, Ashley's bids were rejected, leading to a national scandal.

However, challenges such as high rents and changing shopping habits pose risks. Debenhams, a part of retail heritage, faces an uncertain future.
