In this live Glee Q&A, Phil sits down with Alan Roper, Managing Director of Blue Diamond Garden Centres, for a frank look at what really drives performance in modern garden retail: culture, commercial discipline, and relentless differentiation.Roper explains why scale only works when the “engine room” is tuned for profit and cash, not vanity growth; why benchmarking and ownership culture beat top-down control; how demographic waves continue to pull new gardeners into the category; and where the next profit centres are likely to emerge. He also gives a straight-talking view on British supply, sustainability trade-offs, and the role of social media creativity in sparking demand.Culture + cash over vanity metrics: Growth that sticks comes from building a tight culture, clear customer relationships and rigorous profit control “every step of the way” – using cash generated, not over-leveraging on debt. Retail basics that still win: “Right product, right place, right time, right commitment” remains the core operating system for stores and teams. Demographics & demand: Younger audiences typically reconnect with gardening as life stages shift, with houseplants and community programmes (e.g., Acorn Gardening Club) acting as effective on-ramps. Ownership culture & benchmarking: Centres see each other's figures, act on conversion insights (back the winning genuses), and keep local DNA intact while improving performance. Innovation = new profit centres: Seek true novelty (from rechargeable outdoor lighting to pergolas) to unlock "new money". Back British where it adds difference: Smaller UK suppliers can deliver point-of-difference ranges and resilience. Who should listen? Garden centre leaders, brand and category managers, and suppliers looking to understand how the UK's leading group is thinking about growth, assortment, and customer connection in 2025.

A top surgeon believes there's an urgent need for dedicated cancer centres around the country as the number of people diagnosed with the disease is set to balloon and the gap in outcomes is widening. Colorectal surgeon, Professor Frank Frizelle said comprehensive cancer centres are not novel experiments but rather best practice around the world. He said they are a necessity for New Zealand for sustained improvements in cancer outcomes. Professor Frank Frizelle spoke to Lisa Owen.

Garden centre personality Rosie Bone brings her new ideas for garden retail to the HortWeek Podcast this week this week.Founder of the World's End Garden Centre in 1970 with Len Bone, Rosie puts her success in garden retail down a focus on customer service, looking after your staff and above all "value for money". She argues if you get those three right, other considerations such as location are almost irrelevant.She discusses her passion, which is sustainable garden retailing."Profit isn't a dirty word... but I think in this day and age we have to start to recognise that there is an environmental cost to everything any of us do".She says that imports from China cannot be avoided in many product areas, but that carbon footprint could be offset by focusing on plant-based options in the restaurant:"It's not about telling customers what they should and shouldn't eat, but presenting [food] in a way that encourages customers to make [a plant-based] choice for themselves but that can be done with clever marketing, clever menus."After a period away from the industry Rosie reveals the garden business that revived her interest in and passion for it and what they do so well.And she reveals some significant gaps in the market that garden centres, with their large footprints and nature-oriented client base, could capitalise on.

Prominent colorectal surgeon Frank Frizelle says it is now a necessity for dedicated cancer centres in New Zealand. The Christchurch-based surgeon believes if New Zealand does not adopt comprehensive cancer centres, the system will fail patients. Frizelle told Heather du Plessis-Allan, "it's just about trying to give adequate volumes and concentrations of resources to try and get the best value for money".

Scam call centres are paying up to €1,200 per person for the contact details of potential Irish victims.And once they have a name and number, it's game on, with highly-trained fraudsters working the phones to persuade victims to part with their money via bogus investment “opportunities”.Analysis by The Irish Times has identified 31 Irish victims who lost a combined total of nearly €300,000. This includes a 76-year-old man who lost €61,720, and a high-ranking diplomat who lost more than €31,000.Details of the transactions are contained in a vast data leak - including recordings of the phones calls - from a Georgian scam call centre which was provided to The Irish Times by the Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project (OOCRP), a non-government investigative journalism organisation.Irish Times crime and security correspondent Conor Gallagher is part of that project and he explains to In the News exactly how the scams work. And he talks to some of the Irish victims.But how do these scammers collect the phone numbers they call; how do they identify their victims and what sophisticated sales techniques do they use to persuade unsuspecting victims to “invest” in the bogus schemes?Presented by Bernice Harrison.

In early February 2025, something strange started happening across US government websites. Decades of data began disappearing from webpages for agencies such as the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health and the Census Bureau. In many cases the entire website went dark. Within a few days some 8,000 government pages and 3,000 datasets had been taken down. Since then, many have been reinstated - but some have not. We speak to Professors Maggie Levinstein and John Kubale to find out why this data was taken away, and why any of it matters.

Je retrouve Olivier Lefebvre, président de la toute récente Fédération des Centres de Ressources Territoriales (CRT). Deux ans après un premier échange autour de la notion d'“EHPAD plateforme”, nous constatons que ce modèle est en cours de généralisation avec les CRT.Olivier Lefebvre revient d'abord sur la création de la Fédération en juin 2025. Cette fédération répond à un double besoin : mieux représenter les CRT auprès des pouvoirs publics et rompre l'isolement de certaines structures en proposant un espace de partage d'outils et de bonnes pratiques. Aujourd'hui, une quarantaine de CRT en sont déjà membres, avant même le lancement d'une campagne nationale d'adhésion. Dès septembre, un chargé de mission viendra renforcer l'organisation pour animer un “Tour de France des CRT” et structurer des rencontres régionales.Vous trouverez dans cet épisode, des conseils pour déployer le CRT de votre territoire avec le maximum d'efficacité : Co-construire avant l'autorisation (tours de table : DAC/CLIC/HAD/hôpital/EHPAD/SAD/SIAD).Installer une permanence CRT à l'hôpital (staffs, liaison, protocoles sorties).Mutualiser la prévention (agenda & communication communs, diagnostics existants).Gouvernance claire : Copil large + leader identifié, reporting partagé.Objectiver les effets dans les rapports d'activité (maintien au domicile, réhospitalisations évitées, satisfaction des aidants).Enfin, la Fédération prépare déjà l'avenir, avec la réévaluation du cahier des charges des CRT prévue en 2026. L'objectif sera de sanctuariser les financements existants, de défendre l'augmentation des capacités (au-delà des 30 à 40 places actuelles) et de renforcer l'intégration des CRT dans les politiques publiques du grand âge.Plus d'infos sur le site Internet de la FéDéCRT : https://www.fedecrt.fr/Bonne écoute,ArnaudHébergé par Ausha.

In this episode, we speak with Val Miftakhov, CEO and founder of ZeroAvia, who shares how the clean propulsion systems company is championing hydrogen-electric engines that could transform commercial aviation.Miftakhov discusses:ZeroAvia's vertical integration strategy for developing in-house fuel cells, power electronics, and motors.The company's global expansion with Centres of Excellence in Seattle for electric propulsion systems, Kemble for aircraft integration, and the newly announced Glasgow facility for hydrogen fuel cells.Major commercial traction with 3,000 engines ordered worth $10 billion and another 5,000 in the pipeline, representing up to 8% of the global commercial engine market, with customers including American Airlines and backing from Airbus as lead investor.The certification milestone of achieving G1 approval from the FAA for their 600-kilowatt engine, with commercial operations expected to begin in 2027 for 10-20 seat aircraft, followed by larger regional aircraft in the early 2030s.ZeroAvia's liquid hydrogen developments for longer-range aircraft, including plans to eliminate contrail formation by condensing water vapour at altitude and releasing it as ice below the typical contrail formation zone.Miftakhov also explains why he believes sustainable aviation fuel is ultimately a transition technology, arguing that hydrogen offers superior economics by avoiding the energy-intensive processes required to create synthetic fuels whilst delivering three times better efficiency through fuel cells versus combustion engines.If you LOVED this episode, you'll also love the conversation we had with Daniel Rosen Jacobson, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Elysian Aircraft, who shares the startup's unique approach to electric aviation.

Understaffed 911 call centres are turning to AI to help 911 callers come with some of the most urgent and serious issues, most of the time. But people also, stupidly, call 911 for noise complaints, lost wallets, and more. People see 911 as the way to reach the police. This means the operators are run off their feet dealing with all sorts of nonsense. Now there's a startup training its AI agents on 911 calls to help triage and get humans on the more important calls. It's being used in around a dozen call centres today. But can you imagine hearing, "I'm sorry, but I didn't quite understand you... can you say it again... police? Fire? Ambulance?" How do you feel about this one? Tech is helping make fake leather smell like real leather The company, Uncaged, says they can create a durable, animal and climate-friendly material that feels and even smells like leather. Hyundai has partnered with the company to test it for its cars and trucks and joins Jaguar Land Rover on their client list. A car can take anywhere from two to 14 cowhides to do the interior, delivering a carbon footprint 95% lower than that of leather. The automakers need it to be able to withstand hot temperatures for 500 hours, which can be a challenge for non-leather. Companies have been trying this for years – Apple moved away from leather cases for iPhones to a material called "FineWoven" that didn't hold up, and they've subsequently discontinued.

Observers are calling this possibly the biggest human trafficking event in modern times. Hundreds of thousands of people recruited – usually under false pretences - to work in massive facilities in the border areas of Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos, to promote fraudulent investment schemes and romance scams to unsuspecting citizens around the world. The scams, run by criminal gangs, are thought to be making tens of billions of dollars every year. Those recruited often find themselves, trapped, beaten and tortured. Ed Butler travels to Thailand's border with Myanmar to investigate the scale of the trade, to speak to survivors and to some of those still involved, and to explore what role the ongoing civil war in Myanmar is playing in fuelling this apparently burgeoning criminal trade, beyond the reach of international law-enforcement.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from Assignment, investigations and journeys into the heart of global events.
