Unworn clothing, Luxury brands online, Detox centres
Why do people buy clothes they never wear? Some luxury brands could soon disappear off eBay and Amazon. Plus why some detox centres are not meeting standards.
If we added up the value of all the unworn clothes in the UK's wardrobes, they would be worth more than three billion pounds. So why do we buy clothes that we never wear?
The EU Court of Justice has ruled that luxury brands can ban their products being sold on online platforms such as Amazon or eBay.
We hear why musicians in London are struggling to find venues where they can perform.
Inspectors have found that some detox centres are letting down people with drug and alcohol problems.
And how accurate are the digital maps that we use? What can go wrong if they aren't up to date?
