Festivals, freeholds and Christmas in August

You and Yours

Available for over a year

After a music festival fails to deliver over the weekend, we ask if there's something wrong within the industry. The businesses concentrating on Christmas at the height of summer - why some firms can't wait for Santa. Do you really need to pay for a visa to holiday in China? We look at the rise of lower alcohol wines, and why the UK may end up leading the market. 10 years after the credit crunch we ask the experts if we have learned from the mistakes. The latest on leasehold owners facing doubling ground rent fees. One house builder is offering a solution, but it might not work for everyone. PRESENTER: WINIFRED ROBINSON PRODUCER: HELEN ROBERTS.
