Who's in and who's out

UP AND COMING

RETAIL
LISA MORGAN, 37
GAME GROUP CHIEF EXECUTIVE
Boss of Europe's biggest video games retailer who has presided over booming sales as children today prefer to spend their cash on games rather than music CDs. Morgan's knack has been to encourage women to join the craze for consoles like Nintendo Wii and Xbox - more than a third of her shoppers are female. She cut her teeth at electronics firm Dixons before joining the board of Game at the age of 29.

FASHION
JOURDAN DUNN, 19
MODEL
Tipped by Vogue as a future star on the catwalk, Dunn hails from Greenford. She is said to have been first spotted in a Hammersmith branch of Primark and has spent two years modelling here, in Paris and New York. Dunn, who has spoken out against racism, was the first black catwalk model used by Prada since Naomi Campbell.

MAKING MOVES

RUNNING LONDON
SIMON JENKINS, 65
NATIONAL TRUST CHAIRMAN
Prolific columnist, historian and former Evening Standard editor adds another string to his bow with his appointment as chairman of the National Trust. Sir Simon, a great champion of London, claims to have visited every National Trust house and garden in the country, which includes 14 properties in the capital.

OFF THE LIST

RUNNING LONDON
RAY LEWIS, 45
FORMER DEPUTY MAYOR
Just two months after his appointment by Mayor Boris Johnson, Lewis resigns after being engulfed by a string of allegations about his financial and private life dating back to when he was a priest in the Nineties. The final straw is the revelation by the Evening Standard that Lewis had misled the public about his status as a magistrate. Lewis, who won plaudits for the running of his "bootcamp-style" East End academy for young boys, denies the claims.

STEVE ESOM, 47
EX-M&S DIRECTOR OF FOOD
Abruptly ousted from his job after the supermarket admitted food sales had slumped 4.5 per cent, sending M&S shares into freefall. Some in the City think Esom has been unfairly treated as the fall guy. He was promoted to the M&S board three months ago and only joined from rival Waitrose last year. Esom, a protégé of Lord (John) Sainsbury, is well connected and could bounce back soon.

GROWING IMPACT

NEIL MACGREGOR, 62
BRITISH MUSEUM DIRECTOR
His influence has grown with news that he turned down the chance to head New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art. MacGregor, who is credited with turning round the BM since he took over in 2002, lured a record six million visitors in the past year to shows such as The First Emperor exhibition of Chinese terracotta soldiers.
