Bryan Ferry leaving the ITV Studios. London, England - 26.02.07

Ferry was recently (Apr07) quoted praising the work of propaganda filmmaker Leni Riefenstahl telling German publication Welt am Sonntag, "My God, the Nazis knew how to put themselves in the limelight and present themselves.

"Leni Riefenstahl's movies and Albert Speer's buildings and the mass parades and the flags - just amazing. Really beautiful."

Despite apologising over the comments, the retail chain - which was founded and owned by Jewish immigrant Michael Marks - have cancelled his modelling contract.
