World Cup travel, Vodafone fraud, Pinterest gardening

England fans tell us how they are dropping everything to get to Russia for the World Cup semi-final. Plus transcripts show how criminals broke into a listener's Vodafone account.

Some 10,000 England fans are expected to attend tonight's World Cup semi-final between England and Croatia at Moscow's Luzhniki Stadium. We hear the great lengths some fans are going to get there, and the last minute travel plans being made to get supporters to the game.

Mobile phones are now seen as a 'soft target' for fraudsters, with nearly 17,000 incidents last year of identity fraud reported by telecoms companies. We discover how one criminal broke into a listener's Vodafone account to order two new handsets - using Vodafone's webchat service.

And there are 37 million photos on Instagram labelled #Garden. Many show a snapshot of some perfect planting or design that would be unattainable to the ordinary gardener. We find out how Social Media is inspiring people to create Pinterest-worthy outdoor spaces, and how the shops are catering for that demand.
