5LI: Middle Class Cannabis Farms 25 SEP 11




5 live Investigates show

Summary: Adrian Goldberg reveals the new money earner for the 'squeezed' middle classes: renting out the spare room - to cannabis farmers. He interviews an IT professional making thousands of pounds from the marijuana he grows in his utility room, and a drug dealer from the West Midlands who has a number of middle-class professionals letting their spare room to him for a share of his cannabis-farming profits. Plus, we reveal the high-street shop that's been selling customers a camcorder they didn't want. It says the camera was a better model than the one advertised, but was it really? And we hear the inside story of BBC Newsnight's investigation into international boxing, as well as report on the latest blow to the online poker industry.
