In today's programme, a special report by Shari Vahl, on the case of a man who handed over thousands to criminals after he set out to apply for a simple loan. Such were the number of calls the man was receiving from the scammers that they called while Shari was interviewing him. Listen to find out what happened.

Also on the programme, there's a repair revolution happening on a high street near you, as we hear more and more shops are opening up. We visit one and speak to Fiona Dear from the Restart Project about what else needs to happen to help people get things fixed.

And Advice Centres which offer financial and debt advice are worried they may struggle to keep going in the coming year - that's according to a new report out next week. We get to preview the findings of the report with Liz Bayram, the Chief Executive of Advice UK and hear from an advice centre about the challenges they're facing.
