Something for Nothing Channel 4, 8pm

Times are hard. Of course you don’t need that pointing out – you’re reminded every time you check your bank balance – which is why this little treat has dropped into the schedules at just the right time. Consumer journalist Harry Wallop is on a mission to find out how to live well, without spending a single penny. He’s set himself the challenge of looking good, spending a night on the town and throwing a big shindig for the whole community… on a budget of absolutely nothing. The programme is bursting with tips on how to grab cash-free bargains.
