Dangerous Sweets; Grinch Bots; Shop Christmas Windows

The American imported snacks containing banned ingredients in UK shops. Plus the bots buying up Christmas gifts.

The Chartered Trading Standards Institute (CTSI) has issued a warning this Christmas about imported American sweets and snacks containing banned ingredients. We'll hear from the trading standards officer who has been leading investigations to get these snacks off UK high streets, Steph Young. Plus Chris Noice from the Association of Convenience Stores explains what they're doing to clamp down on the issue.

We have exclusive research into what the bots are up to this Christmas from Matthew Gracey-McMinn, at bot management firm Netacea, and hear how its not the big ticket items that are being targeted this year.

And the trend of for high street shops to do Christmas shop window displays take us to a magical window display in Manchester, featuring a horse riding fox, five hundred baubles and thousands of lights.
