XtraVision in court appeal

Troubled DVD rental chain XtraVision is due back before the High Court later.

An interim examiner was appointed to the business, which has 1,300 employees in 180 stores, two weeks ago.

Today the court will be asked to extend court protection from its creditors.

The company insists the vast majority of the stores - all of which remain open - are profitable, despite problems with high rents and a drop in revenues.

An investor, Birchall, is prepared to pump €6m into the DVD rental chain and it is being argued that the company can emerge from insolvency.
