I just hope they don't butcher too much of the footage to fit their own agenda - we all know what TV companies are like

I'll try and catch this on the on-demand service after it's been aired.

Just a quick one, why doesnt Martin make the difference between capped and fixed rate deals clearer as far as energy bills are concerned.

In the program he said a fixed deal is known as a cap in the industry, but a capped and fixed rate deal are two different things, fixed rates are just that - fixed, wont go up or down, a capped rate deal wont go up but can possibly come down.

There is a big difference between the two and Martin should have explained this.
