The Civil Aviation Authority has launched an inquiry into a company selling cheap flights. It follows a You and Yours investigation into a website called Viman. The company has been accused of putting up the price of flights after tickets were sold. The company has blamed technical problems. We speak to people who bought tickets and an airline industry expert and lawyer.

The Financial Ombudsman Service has told You and Yours that almost a quarter of all complaints about payment protection insurance are about mortgage cover. The banking watchdog says it's dealing with nearly 40,000 complaints about the mis-selling of policies meant to cover mortgage payments when people lose their income through accident, sickness or redundancy. Like PPI, mortgage payment protection insurance, was mis-sold to some people whose policies would never have paid out because of their medical history or age or because they were self-employed.

We look at the new trend in people taking much shorter breaks closer to home. These holidays are called microadventures.
We hear from the adventurer Alastair Humphreys, who coined the phrase microadventure and he's written a book about it too.
He tells us what he thinks is the secret to finding the right adventure.
