The man behind clothing retailer Boden and the risks of some mobile cashback deals.

How Johnnie Boden built the online clothing company that bears his name, the risks of signing up for a mobile phone cashback deal and 'ethical' food labels.

We'll hear from the founder of the mail order clothing company, Boden. Johnnie Boden tells us how he started his business by designing the clothes himself, and explains why Boden will never be seen as cool.

We'll be looking at the story of a mobile phone retailer which offered customers deals which included cashback sent by cheque each month. But the retailer has gone into administration leaving some customers with bills they say they can't afford. 

And do you understand what the ethical labels on food mean? If not, you're not alone. We'll try to shed some light on the matter as we start a new series.
