Transport Rebound; Telephone Switch-Off; Marketing Alcohol
Public transport needs passengers to return to survive but what happens if we don't? And, it'll soon be the end for the 'haunted apparatus' - why analogue phones must go.
People are returning to public transport but not in the numbers transport bosses need to run their services. What will a decline in passengers and the daily commute mean for the recovery?

Why the sun and alcoholic drinks marketing were made for each other. The author of a book on marketing booze debates with a TV screen writer about how alcohol is and should be represented on screen.
