The charity Christians Against Poverty says it's now harder for people to escape their debts than when it was founded, 30 years ago. With the cost of living dominating the news, it's a timely warning. Inflation is down, but energy bills are expected to rise later this year - we'll find out what the outlook is for our bills. A signal that controls thousands of old-fashioned electricity meters is finally being switched off - so what's the impact is on people still using them? We'll ask the energy companies if they're doing enough to support customers. We'll hear from the Chelsea Flower Show, where a star exhibit is all about flood prevention. And people are queuing up in shopping centres to buy unopened parcels - where are they from and is it worth it? PRESENTER: WINIFRED ROBINSON PRODUCER: TOM MOSELEY
