Scamming, Classy clothing, Catching fish

BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Scamming, Classy clothing, Catching fish

Scammers, lads and dads fashion, and who decides how much fish can we catch?

We hear from a woman who claims to have duped people out of millions.  Also - Six Nations rugby tickets, lads and dads matching outfits, and who decides our fishing quotas?

We look at the latest retail figures and try to find out what we are buying and where we are buying it.

Freedom of Information requests - why are they so tricky and do they really need to be?

Why are so many 6 Nations rugby tickets making it onto Viagogo, when the terms and conditions for buying them in the first place clearly state you can't resell them?

The scammer speaks...we hear from a woman who claims to have duped people out of millions of pounds by luring them into the world of stock-market betting.

The parents who dress their kids in matching outfits - why would you want your child to be a complete mini-me?

And fishing - who really decides how much the UK can catch?

PRESENTER: PETER WHITE

PRODUCER: PETE WILSON

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