The Woolworths brand is to be re-launched as an online retailer after being bought by Daily Telegraph owners, Sir David and Sir Frederick Barclay.
The much-loved High Street chain went into administration in November and its more than 800 stores closed a month ago after struggling with debts of £385m.
It is thought only a fraction of the former total of almost 30,000 staff will get their jobs back.
Woolworths' children's clothing label Ladybird is also to be re-born online.
A sign of the times.

That's all fine and dandy but they better be selling Pick-n-Mix. I mean if they don't, what's the point...
