Julia Somerville, Gloria Hunniford and Angela Rippon are once again at the helm as part of this special week of live programming.\n\nToday, they tackle the shocking story of the fraudsters scamming parents out of thousands of pounds by sending fake SOS messages posing as their children. It all unfolds on one of the world’s biggest messaging apps. Plus – heat pumps! They’re supposed to be the answer to our quest for low-carbon affordable heating. But some users are saying some of the companies installing them aren’t up to scratch.\n\nAnd travel journalist Simon Calder is live in the studio to answer all your holiday questions, sharing the latest tips and advice on Covid travel rules and more.
