Intu, which owns some of the UK's biggest shopping centres, has appointed administrators as a "contingency" in case financial rescue talks fail.

In March, the owner of company that runs Lakeside in Essex, Chapelfield in Norwich, and centres in Watford and Milton Keynes, said it was in talks with lenders about new funding.

Intu had been struggling before coronavirus to fill outlets at some of its sites, and had heavy debts.

Intu said "notwithstanding the progress made" it had appointed KPMG to plan for administration.

The firm's financial woes include making a loss of £2bn in 2019, failing earlier this year to raise £1bn in new funding, and having debts of £5bn.
