Coral, Gap years, Airbnb

You and Yours

Available for over a year

A worker at Coral tells us what it's like to work in a high street bookie, and why staff at her shop are uncomfortable pushing vouchers to customers to encourage them to open online accounts. We talk to students about the financial implications of taking a gap year. How you can be turfed out of your Airbnb if a friend nips round for a quick visit. The musical in Manchester telling the story of bus regulation (to the music of Starlight Express). The delays at the probate service holding up house sales. And, how the social network NextDoor has had to change its marketing materials to stop its letters looking like they are genuine letters from neighbours. Presenter: Winifred Robinson Producer: Lydia Thomas
