BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Ticket Sales, Nissan Locks, Unisex Underwear

Winifred Robinson investigates the row over new laws for ticket re-sellers.

Consumer news with Winifred Robinson, including the row over new laws for ticket re-sellers, automatic 'drive-away locking' and the designers who think underwear is for sharing.

A change to the government's new Consumer Rights Bill could give people more information and protection when they buy tickets from a secondary re-seller. We look at why the Department of Culture, Media and Sport is against it.

Many new cars come with an automatic 'drive-away' feature that locks the doors as you set off. But Nissan have dropped it from their cars. A customer tries to find out why.

And some clothing brands think underwear is the final frontier of his and hers, since more women are buying and wearing men's pants. Can you really design a one-size-fits-all? And would partners really want to...um...share?

Presenter: Winifred Robinson
Producer: Joel Moors.

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