Synopsis
Jeremy discusses the latest growth figures and parents walking out on their families. We also take a closer look at the finer points of Scottish independence and ask if you've ever seen the Northern Lights.
Growth Figures
With growth in the UK down by 0.2%, we talk to someone that says zero growth is no bad thing – it’s time we got used to it and embraced it.
Parents Walking Out
One in five parents who walk out on their families end up never seeing their children again. Do you remember the day your dad walked out, never to be seen again?
Scottish Independence
Alex Salmond starts the consultation period on the Scottish referendum. Today we have a special programme on the big questions that will affect Scottish independence: What will happen to the pound, the Queen, the debt, the BBC, passports and the army?
Northern Lights
Have you ever seen the wonder that is the Northern Lights? Apparently this week it’s even been visible from northern England.
