Across the world fuel prices are hitting record highs - as the US war with Iran continues beyond its seventh month. In the UK, energy bills continue to rise - inflation in Germany has hit its highest level in almost three years - and last month the US federal reserve raised the cost of borrowing for the first time in more than three years. The crunch is real - and being felt everywhere. During this special programme presented by Maryam Moshiri we take a global perspective - with our global teams we hear about the impact - from Asia to Africa and explain what is being done, and what you as a consumer can do too.
