With Winifred Robinson. Britain's oldest butcher's shop and defibrillators in schools.

Consumer news with Winifred Robinson. Including Britain's oldest butcher's shop, defibrillators in schools and cosmetic surgery adverts.

Could a ban on adverts for cosmetic surgery help reduce complaints? A French plastic surgeon tells us why it's worked in his country.

We take a look at one of Britain's oldest business's and speak to a butcher whose shop, R J Balson of Bridport, has been trading since 1535. He tells us how the business of selling fresh meat has changed over the past 500 years.

Presented by Winifred Robinson
Produced by Karen Dalziel.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
