Just how useful are they?

This Christmas you may have become the owner of a new gadget but, does it promise to make your domestic life a whole lot easier or will it be forgotten by Boxing Day and go the way of the your bread-maker - gathering dust at the back of a kitchen cupboard.

Kathryn Reaney meets a couple who met and married because of their love of teasmaids. Jenni is then joined by Maggie Philbin at Radio Berkshire and Maurice Collins; author of Eccentric Contraptions and amazing gadgets, gizmos and thingamabobs
