本報商務記者艾瑪-辛普森為您介紹更多詳情。

Debenhams, a big part of Bristol for half a century anchor stores in so many over towns and cities like Brighton.

Debenhams，是布里斯托爾半個世紀以來的一大主力店，在布賴頓等許多過城鎮和城市。

I used to work for them in a long time ago and on the corner here in Leeds, but for how much longer we won't have any shopping centers left.

我曾經在很久以前為他們工作過，在利茲這裡的拐角處，但多久我們都不會再有購物中心了。

We'll have no town centers left when everybody shops online in Edinburgh today, nostalgia from younger shoppers to girls who bought the problem dresses there.

當今天大家都在愛丁堡網購的時候，我們就沒有城鎮中心了，從年輕的購物者到在那裡買到問題衣服的女孩都會懷念。

No, I mean and staff arriving for work to find out that when the doors open tomorrow, the stock starts to be cleared.

不，我是說和員工到了上班的時候，發現明天開門的時候，庫存就開始被清空了。

I think it's been like a long, slow decline for Debenhams has not really changed.

我認為，對於德本漢斯來說，它就像一個漫長的、緩慢的衰退並沒有真正改變。

It's been a constant presence through the decades, but it's problems have been many years in the making.

幾十年來，它一直都是存在的，但它的問題已經存在了很多年。

Sir Ian Cheshire was chairman months before Debenhams went into administration last year on, then limped on, controlled by its lenders.

伊恩-切希爾爵士在去年上德本哈姆斯進入行政管理前幾個月擔任主席，然後一瘸一拐地走下去，由其貸款人控制。

If you're caught with a lot of fixed costs, long leases, you can't adapt, then you're likely to be one of the casualties.

如果你被大量的固定成本、長期的租賃合同所困擾，你無法適應，那麼你很可能成為犧牲品之一。

It basically ran into the straitjacket of its debts and its store long leases, but the pandemic tip Debenhams into administration again during locked down JD Sports had been closing in on a rescue deal, but they got cold feet and pulled out this morning, the last remaining bidder.

它基本上遇到了它的債務和它的商店長租約的束縛，但大流行提示Debenhams再次進入行政管理期間鎖定JD Sports一直在接近救援交易，但他們冷落了，今天早上退出了，最後剩下的投標人。

In a statement, the administrator said The economic landscape is extremely challenging on, coupled with the uncertainty facing the UK retail industry.

管理人在一份聲明中表示，經濟形勢極具挑戰性上，加上英國零售業面臨的不確定性。

Absolute priority in a situation like this is to try and get the best possible return to the creditors.

在這種情況下，絕對優先考慮的是儘量讓債權人得到最好的回報。

Therefore, the total focus will be on that.

是以，總的重點將放在這一點上。

Sadly, that doesn't mean a long term focus to keeping those stores open, not even being able to preserve jobs.

遺憾的是，這並不意味著要長期專注於保持這些店面的營業，甚至不能保住就業。

All they can really do now is focus on getting as much money for the stocking stores as possible.

他們現在真正能做的就是專心致志的為絲襪店爭取儘可能多的資金。

But the difference here is that the covert pandemic has been ruthless in seeking out those companies which I have got a week offering or weak finances.

但這裡不同的是，隱蔽的流行的一直在無情地找尋那些的我有一星期的提供或弱財務的公司。

Actually, the other sports direct might come in and buy some of these stores and save some off these jobs.

其實，其他的體育直營店可能會來收購其中的一些店面，省去一些這些工作。

But I think the real problem here is on those jobs for those people losing them.

但我認為這裡真正的問題是在那些失去工作的人的工作上。

There are no new high street retail jobs to go to, and that is particularly damaging for younger workers on for female workers.

沒有新的高街零售業工作崗位可供選擇，這對年輕工人和女工的傷害特別大。
