The change to the housing benefit doesn't just affect people who have spare bedrooms. Mark speaks to a man who has been on a waiting list for 20 years for a house in Swindon, he'll be talking about why he finds it frustrating when he learns that people have rooms they don't use.

A new man is in charge of fundraising at Salisbury Cathedral, Mark asks him how you go about raising money for one of the country's richest organisations, the tallest spire in Britain and the oldest working clock in the world.

And if you were quite nonplussed about your local river, the Olympic gold medallist James Cracknell will be trying to convince you that it's more interesting than you first thought.
