Peter Allen with original news and exclusive interviews from across the UK, including those affected by the big rise in the number of older people living in flatshares.

There's been a big rise in the number of older people living in flat shares. We hear a lot about rising house prices and soaring rents, but that means people in their 40s, 50s and 60s are being forced to share houses with people they don't know. We'll look at the issue and hear from those affected.  We speak to a bus driver from Crewe  who won six million pounds on the Lotto Jackpot is about to start work on his last ever bus route this morning.  We hear from campaigners as net long-term migration to the UK was 333,000 in 2015 - the second highest level on record. And as part of our weekly look back at a moment in history, we look at the release of the first Star Wars film in the 1970s.
