Ahead of the release of the latest unemployment figures, Sean Farrington talks to someone looking for work, and to a recruiter, about how the jobs market is changing. High street retail has been struggling before and throughout the pandemic, but what about the future? Sean speaks to a retail futurist who is optimistic for the UK high street. As schools in Scotland begin to reopen today, the rest of the UK will be keeping a close eye on developments. Sean finds out more from the chief executive of the Outer Hebrides Chamber of Commerce about getting it right when it comes to educational and economic goals, while preventing the spread of the virus. And did you think you'd miss the sounds of printers and air con while working from home? Sean hears how people have been drawn to websites recreating the noises in the workplace.
