Childcare places and Joe Lycett

BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Childcare places and Joe Lycett

Joe Lycett has a new consumer programme on Channel 4. We put him through his paces.

Joe Lycett talks about his new Channel 4 consumer show Joe Lycett's Got Your Back. We ask him what he is doing on our turf.

What impact is delivering the Government's 30 hours of free childcare having on early-years providers? We talk to a charity which says the release of a Department for Education survey suggests there's a crisis brewing. 

And there's a new consumer show in town. We talk to Joe Lycett about why he's putting his tanks on our lawn.
 
We also hear from Anna McMorrin, a Labour MP with a personal inspiration behind a piece of legislation she's attempting to steer through Parliament, Extended Producer Responsibilities for plastic recycling - which translates as "the polluter pays". 

We've news on what a court ruling about a luxury cinema development in a £7m mansion could mean for you - and why you might want to take online customer reviews with a pinch of salt. 

Presented by Peter White
Produced by Kevin Core
