How big a hit will the high street take from this summer's riots? We speak to Lord Harris who owns Carpet Right. His shop in Tottenham was burned down. He's sceptical about how much use a government support scheme will be. The driver in Norwich caught using two mobiles at once - his solicitor thinks there should be tougher penalties for drivers on mobile phones. And on A-Level results day, we find out why student rents in some cities have increased by as much as sixteen percent.
