Live from Westfield Stratford

Julian Worricker and top fashion designer Paul Costelloe broadcast live from Westfield shopping centre in Stratford on what you love and hate about where you shop.

You and Yours is broadcasting live from Westfield shopping centre in Stratford to hear about your changing shopping habits and what entices you to hand over your hard earned cash when times are tight. We'll be hearing from bank holiday shoppers and about the winners and losers in the retail war.

Top fashion designer Paul Costelloe will be casting his eye over how we dress.

And we'll also have news of a revolution in supermarket CD and DVD sales - in the future you'll be able to have your music and films made specially for you on demand while you pick up your groceries.

Julian Worricker will be trying his hand at making pretzels. Prepare to be horrified at the shapes he comes up with.

And we also want your pictures and stories about your personal retail heaven and hell. Simply take pictures of what you love or hate about where you're shopping now on your phone and post them on Twitter using the hashtag #youandyours . The best will be featured in a You and Yours Flickr gallery. There is a link to the gallery on the You and Yours website.

Presented by Julian Worricker
Produced by Paul Waters.
