Fashion Drops, High Street Flops and Norway's Electric Car Dreams

You and Yours

Available for over a year

We look at the state of our high streets and what is happening to the big brands. Why are some of them finding it so tough - and is there any sign of a change in fortunes? Why Norway's streets ahead when it comes to electric cars. How fashion retailers are creating a clicking frenzy through a "drop." Are businesses clear enough when it comes to recycling? What is a debenture and does it guarantee you a ticket? And more fears over adult social care costs - and why councils could be struggling to meet them. PRESENTER: WINIFRED ROBINSON PRODUCER: PETE WILSON.
