VW used-car sales, Plastic bag charge, National Lottery changes
You and YoursAvailable for over a year
You & Yours investigates the resale value of used Volkswagens following the emissions testing scandal. Will it make car buyers more or less likely to choose a car on their green credentials? From today, shoppers in England will have to pay 5p for all single use carrier bags. The charge has already been introduced in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, which are now using far fewer carrier bags. Will England follow suit? Plus from this week the National Lottery are adding more balls to the draw. It's the biggest change Camelot has made to the Lotto in 21 years. We find out how the odds of winning the jackpot will change, and why the Lotto is promising they will be making more people millionaires. Presented by Winifred Robinson Produced by Natalie Donovan.
