Are house prices about to plummet?

House prices have fallen an average of 4% in the last year due to rising interest rates and the knock on effect on mortgages.

How low will they go and does anyone think we're on the cusp of a housing crash? We ask esteemed economist Roger Bootle.

Also - we’re in Ukraine which has been hitting back - drone attacks on Russian apartment blocks in Moscow. Putin calls it “terrorism“.

What does this tell us about the Ukrainian offensive? We speak to Andrew Harding, foreign correspondent and author of Small, Stubborn Town; Life, Death and Defiance in Ukraine.

And how the Great Crested Newt is playing havoc with Boris Johnson’s plan for a swimming pool.
