Værts Andreas har hevet huskorrespondent Lars Apel og SoMe-ekspert - og førsteudfordrer til quizmaster-posten, Mikkel Juelsgaard - i studiet. Sammen forsøger panelet at give lidt lys til danske Spurs-fans efter et dystert exit i Ligacuppen, på udebane mod Fulham. De debatterer Richarlisons mål, Van de Vens lækre fødder, Forsters gamle, gamle krop, og meget mere. De vender også de seneste transfers og ser frem mod 6-0-sejren mod Burnley. OBS: Hvis I vælger at spille på Richarlison-hattrick ligesom Lars, er det ikke bare på eget ansvar, det er ... uhyggeligt dumt. Vi ligger stadig nummer 2 i ligaen, venner, og Ange-ball is real. COYS

In this 30-minute episode of the EG Property Podcast, something of a sequel to PedElle Power: Fundraising, bond building and making women more visible in real estate , EG editor Samantha McClary sits down with Avison Young's Emma Turnbull, SEGRO's Annabel Freeman and Simple Works' Sinéad Conneely to share what the ride meant to them, what it means more widely for women in the built environment and how important the fundraising the event does is to charities like Coram. For those that might not know, the annual PedElle is a charity cycle ride for women across the built environment organised by Club Peloton. The ride, which raises money for Coram and brings women in real estate together, took place in the Cumbrian hills on 16,17 and 18 September. Some 35 women cycled more than 400km and climbed close to 7,000m (Everest, for comparison, is around 8,800m) over the three days. On day one, the cyclists were treated to The Struggle, an infamous climb in the Lake District that offers both lung and thigh-busting gradients. However, it was those tough climbs that reminded everyone on the ride exactly why they were there – to help the thousands of children who are struggling through life to find forever families and safe places to grow up. So far, the riders have raised more than £38,000 for Coram. If you'd like to help them top £40,000, please click here to donate. The ride was made possible with support from Avison Young, Citygrove, DP9, Forsters, Knight Frank and Legal & General Investment Management
In this 30 minute episode of the EG Property Podcast, EG editor and long time PedEller Samantha McClary sits down with three riders to find out more about the powerful impact the ride has had, not just for the charities it raises money for, but for the growing group of women in the built environment that are joining the PedElle club. The ride, run by Club Peloton, raises much needed funds for children's charity Coram, and this year is taking place on home turf. Over three days, some 40 women from across the real estate sector will ride more than 430km in the Lake District, Forest of Bowland and Yorkshire Dales and summit almost the equivalent of Everest. Listen in to hear how Natasha Rees, head of property litigation at Forsters, Alexandra Milne, director at DP9, and Emma Turnbull, an associate director in the leisure team at Avison Young, have been preparing for the ride, how the PedElle network has become more than just a cycle challenge and what being able to raise money for vulnerable children means to everyone involved.

Many people on Disability Living Allowance are rejected when they are assessed for the newer benefit Personal Independence Payment (PIP). Paul Lewis hears about some of the experiences of claiming PIP and discusses with Daphne Hall, vice chair of the National Association of Welfare Rights Advisers and Dr Jim McCormick, chair of the Disability and Carers Benefits Advisory Group. More than 100,000 couples in the UK divorce each year — around 40% of marriages. It is over 20 years since divorcing couples could bring the value of pensions into the pot when they share their assets. But only one out of every eight cases take pensions into account as part of the financial settlement. So why is pension sharing at divorce forgotten in so many cases? Paul Lewis speaks to Jo Edwards, head of Family Law at Forsters. Up to a quarter of a million people over the age of 70 get no state pension - but around half of them could. Former pensions minister Steve Webb explains all. It’s nearly three months since we first reported that people were suffering weeks of delays when they try to access their pension funds invested with Prudential. Since then those weeks of delays have turned into months… and still the problems continue. Dan Whitworth investigates.

It's episode 6 of The Agenda, and this time Jonathan Seitler QC's agenda is that our system of dilapidations is “perfectly formed” – which is why so few disputes ever make it to court. But, for Jonathan Ross, property litigation partner at Forsters, dilapidations is anything but – not least because neither landlords nor tenants understand how it works. Discussion ranges from the potential for improvement and the merits of the mediation process, to shopping for bananas and Monty Python’s Life of Brian. But will either Jonathan persuade the other round to his point of view? Find out by listening to The Agenda.

On Money Box with Paul Lewis: Should you buy your foreign currency now or wait till after next week's EU referendum? Sterling has been falling against the world's major currencies and share prices dropped sharply this week after polls suggested that the UK might vote to leave. Currency and investment tips with Bob Atkinson, Travelsupermarket; IFA Stephen Willis, Piercefield Oliver, and Justin Urquhart Stewart, Seven Investment Management. The inbox at Vodafone - one of the biggest mobile phone operators in the world - has been filling up. Latest figures from the regulator Ofcom showed the company received by far the highest proportion of complaints from its 18 million UK customers than any other UK provider. Vodafone also faces the prospect of a heavy fine from Ofcom for the way it has handled complaints. Money Box has been speaking to some disgruntled customers - and they've highlighted some intriguing tactics about how best to get a problem sorted. Helen Dewdney, founder of The Complaining Cow blog, joins the programme. Should you go public or private? We're talking divorce not health. There is a trend among wealthy people to employ a private judge to negotiate the financial settlement between them and the one they used to love. The agreement they make has to be approved by a judge in court but then becomes a binding award. It will certainly save time, avoiding the backlog of cases in the public court system, and it is all private. And family lawyers expect private justice to spread to those of more modest means. But what does it cost? Joanne Edwards, head of family law at Forsters law firm, will explain all.
