Research by You and Yours has found that more than 100,000 people have switched to smaller energy companies since the beginning of October. We ask what kind of deal do you get if you shun the Big 6?
You may have seen offers of trial boxes of healthy snacks. Peter White speaks to the man who set up Graze. And he talks to one of the administrators who will determine what happens next to the troubled DVD rental chain Blockbuster.
Plus the no win no fee personal injury adverts flouting a Department of Health ban in A&E departments.
And we visit the Northern cities which have commissioned "light festivals" to tempt in the tourists on cold dark nights.
Presenter: Peter White
Producer: Joe Kent.
