We investigate accusations that Chinese factories producing iPads and iPhones are treating workers "like machines". We'll talk to the NGOs who claim humiliating management techniques and illegal working hours are the norm. We have asked the company Apple to respond. Plus we catch up with the first blind manager of a fully sighted football team that's recognised by the Football Association. And if you'd like to help in the mammoth task of mapping all 2,000 miles of Britain's canal towpaths we'll tell you how.
