E-Cigarettes, Β£3000 of Wi-Fi, Buying Titles

Will e-cigarettes cost more when regulations change? Peter White finds out. Plus the mobile device that racked up a Β£3,000 bill in three days and the pitfalls of buying a title.

As e-cigarettes have become more popular, concerns have been raised about their contents. The European Commission has ruled that anyone selling them by 2016 must be able to show exactly what's in it. But will the extra regulations mean extra cost?

A civil servant living in London denies using more than 110GB in three days this January. But Vodafone says Lucy Hayes must pay the almost Β£3000 bill she racked up within ten days of buying the mobile wifi device.

Plus the man who tried to buy himself a noble title. Some websites charge people thousands of pounds to call themselves the Lord or Lady of the Manor, but are the titles worth anything more than the paper they are printed on?
