Rail fares are set to rise again in the New Year, so how do prices here compare with the rest of Europe? Trading Standards are there to protect us from fraudsters and rogue traders, but their budgets have been cut by nearly a third in just three years. How will ordinary consumers be affected? Is Keswick in Cumbria really the most dog-friendly town in Britain? Producer: Jonathan Hallewell Presenter: Winifred Robinson.
