In today's programme we hear about the social media ads selling fake knitted cardigans and the links to a major international scam. Shari Vahl hears from victims and has advice on what to look out for when you're shopping via your socials.

Should tennis courts in parks be free or should people be made to pay in return for top quality courts? The Lawn Tennis Association is refurbishing 60% of park courts and councils are bringing in fees to cover costs. We hear from one park that's opted out of the scheme and Olly Scadgell from the Lawn Tennis Association and Paul Jessop from Tennis for Free discuss the pros and cons of the changes.

And avocado bathrooms were hated once but now they're back. According to research by Wickes, a third of 25-34 year olds picked avocado as the colour they would most like to use in a bathroom upgrade. We hear from someone who's got one, plus Deborah Sugg Ryan, Professor of Design History at the University of Portsmouth, and presenter of A House Through Time, discusses how the look has evolved since the 70's.
