BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Electric camper vans; Flybe collapse; Treatment for gamblers

Why the makers of camper vans have serious concerns about being asked to go electric.

The camper van makers, worried about their electric future. The NHS treatment centre for serious gamblers.

We hear from the makers of camper vans who have serious concerns about being asked to go electric.  All new vehicles are being forced to move away from diesel and petrol by 2035 under new Government plans.  But will the technology be in place in time to allow a new breed of camper van to go roving in the wild?

The supermarkets using speed to tempt us into shopping online.  Might this help to reinvigorate the online grocery market?  Would you like your online food shopping delivered in under an hour? 

And the NHS is launching its latest treatment centre to help people with serious gambling problems.  We hear from the man in charge who believes gambling addiction is now so serious, it's become a public health issue. 

Presenter:   Melanie Abbott
