Ben takes your calls on the government's benefits cap - could you live off Β£257 a week? That's the maximum (outside Greater London) for single people who do not have children or whose children do not live with them. The maximum for a couple is Β£384.62 per week (Β£20,000 a year). Ben speaks to the charity Gingerbread, which supports single parents.
Plus: The Bishop of Bath & Wells, The Rt Revd Peter Hancock, speaks to Ben about the visit to Somerset of the Archbishop of Canterbury this week, Kathy Crouch answers your garden and food questions and there's another round of The Impossible Five.
