Pets in care homes, Customised clothing, Fraud crime figures

This edition examines how easy it is to keep a pet in a care home, personalising clothes bought online and whether local councils should be funding the arts.

We explore the challenges for care homes in allowing residents to keep their pets when they move in.

New crime figures show cyber crime and internet fraud now accounts for around half of recorded crimes in England and Wales. We ask why - and whether police officers are equipped to tackle the issue.

How technology means you can make a real fashion statement by customising your clothes.

After a man is convicted of manslaughter by gross negligence following the death of a worker at a car wash in London, we look at the risks involved in the trade - and hear how it illustrates the levels of slavery on Britain's high streets.

We ask why some companies are charging you for using your debit card.

And complaints about adverts - which ones did we hate the most in 2016

Presenter: Winifred Robinson
Producer: Pete Wilson.
