Summary

This week, team Noonan, Dunleavy and Offord talk to consumer rights queen Vix Leyton about what's what when it comes to shopping and returns (and bad hairdressing experiences), and journalist Alice Hutton explains why we should all give a shit about the slow death of local newspapers. Jen chats to filmmaker and activist Daisy May Hudson about Half Way, her award-nominated documentary about hidden homelessness, and our Sarah tells us about her brilliant #joinin campaign that takes place every Christmas Day. The team also share their picks for Women of the Year and Dunleavy Does... well, she doesn't.
