What went wrong at Wilko?
Wilko has gone into administration - what went wrong? Also - July's washout hits the staycation sector, and are takeaways ready for the next plastics ban?
Wilko is a fixture on many high streets and one of the UK's best-known - and most popular - department stores. Its descent into administration last week was met with an outpouring of grief on social media - but that won't be much consolation to more than 12,000 people whose jobs are now at risk. We'll look at where it all went wrong.
Also - lots of single use plastic containers are soon going to be banned - but do takeaway owners, perhaps the sector most affected, even know what's coming?
The 'lockdown generation' of students has been graduating this summer - we'll hear from some of them on what the last three years have been like.
