The French Edition: Patriotic Pants and Computer Hackers

David Chazan goes to meet the students studying computer hacking in Lille & Emma Jane Kirby talks to an entrepreneurial underwear maker tired of France's over-regulated labour laws

David Chazan goes to a university in Lille where he is introduced to a degree course in 'Ethical Hacking, Data Security and Countermeasures'. He is shown how easy it is for his credit card details to be stolen. All the students on the course are vetted by the French Intelligence services.

Meanwhile, Emma Jane Kirby goes to meet Guillaume Gibault, the French entrepreneur specialising in the manufacture of underpants. Tired of the restrictive labour laws, he laments the poor business climate in his country and slips Emma Jane Kirby a mini pair of navy blue briefs in the hope that she can deliver them to the nursery of His Royal Highness Prince George.
