Who was your childhood celebrity crush? The entertainment world has lost two beloved stars today. Actor Luke Perry, best known for his role as Dylan in Beverly Hills 90210, died of a stroke at the age of 52. And Musician Keith Flint, lead singer of The Prodigy, is reported to have taken his own life, at age 49. The panelists discuss why we're so affected when famous people die. A high end apartment project that has been dogged by delay after delay, and developer Auckland Trotting Club is now pleading with buyers to give it until next year to finish it. Many off the plan buyers have been forced to rent having sold family homes to move into the apartments. Maria Slade, Business Editor at The Spinoff and author of Buyer Beware, explains the risks of buying off plans. A former Macleans College student is in a stoush with the school over the selling of second-hand uniforms online. Jayson Fong reckons the uniforms are too expensive and he wanted to give students a better deal. But the school isn't happy Fong was able to get his hands on students email addresses to promote the business. The panelists weigh in on the argument.
