“The Town That Took on the Taxman
9pm, BBC2
As part of the Black Economy season, Heydon Prowse looks at the techniques used by large companies operating in the UK to avoid tax and sees what might happen if local businesses in a small town in Wales used them.
Crickhowell is home to a number of independent concerns – including a salmon smokery and bakery – that have successfully fought off a large supermarket chain. Now, in a satirical experiment, they see if they can’t pull the same tricks to dodge tax as used by their more overbearing competitors.
