This is already the biggest betting Test series ever, with up to a record 50 million pounds riding on the outcome of the five-match series, and with the unprecedented interest in the outcome of the final match we are expecting cricket punters to bet over a million pounds in a single day for the first time as the game gets underway.

There are a lot of wives who previously would have stuck things out. Now, if their husband is worth 20 million, and they know they can get 10 million if they split up, they think they might as well.

That's over 3 billion more pounds of meat. Exports are likely to go up only 600 million pounds this year.

Our bull case reaches as high as 950p if management were to sell trophy assets (the FT and FT.com would be worth 850 million pounds on a multiple of 8.0 times peak earnings before interest, tax and amortization), return 1.75 billion pounds of cash and bring Pearson's sub-standard margins (11.8% in 2004) up to industry norms of 17% (our 2008 forecast is 14%).
