| NEXT PANORAMA - HOW SAFE IS YOUR MONEY? - MONDAY 8.30PM
LEHMAN COLLAPSE
The collapse of 150-year-old US investment bank Lehman Brothers sent financial markets tumbling and has left people around the world fearful about what will happen next.
Within hours of Lehman filing the largest bankruptcy in US history, thousands of shocked workers could be seen leaving its Manhattan and UK offices, having just cleared their desks.
But experts are warning it is not just bankers who face dark days ahead, that millions of people around the world are likely to be affected - at least indirectly.
WE NEED YOUR HELP
In a change to next week's TV schedule we will be broadcasting a special edition of Panorama on Monday to examine the impact of the collapse and what it means for you. And we need your help to tell this story.
ARE YOU DIRECTLY AFFECTED?
First and foremost we want to speak to people directly involved - are you a Lehman Brothers employee? Or do you know someone who is?
Do you work for a hedge fund or other company which dealt with Lehman Brothers?
Do you have inside information which you think can help?
We also want to hear from other City workers caught up in this financial turmoil.
If you have a story to tell please email panorama@bbc.co.uk" putting the word Lehman in the subject field.
ARE YOU VULNERABLE?
And we want to hear from you if you are concerned about how this news will affect your personal finances.
Are you a first-time buyer who is now concerned about your chances of getting a mortgage? Are you about to buy your pension annuity, but are now worried about how much you will get? Are you now wondering if your savings are entirely safe?
Again, if you have a story to tell please email panorama@bbc.co.uk" putting the word Lehman in the subject field.
MANY THANKS
That's it from us for now but remember you can keep up to date with Panorama via our website.
The Panorama team.
