Truffle advice and facts:
Truffles are a type of fungi called mycorrhizalÌý- they grow on theÌýroots of suitable host trees.
Traditionally, pigs have been trained to find truffles but dogs are often used these days, too.
The ancient Greeks thought truffles wereÌýcreated when lightning hit damp soil.
Truffles are very difficult to find so you really should be trained or go out with an expert. Truffle producers or the are useful sources of knowledge.
Always get advice from a mycologist before you eat any truffle you have found yourself. Like mushrooms, many truffles can be harmful to humans and animals if eaten.
The location of commercial truffle sites are often kept a secret. If searching for truffles on private land, you must always get permission from the landowner.
Are you a fan of truffles? Or are they, perhaps,Ìýoverrated?

"My mother in law has come round to our house at Christmas seven years running. This year we're having a change. We're going to let her in" deadpanned Les Dawson.
But now, as Gyles Brandreth found out, the image of the traditional mother-in-law has changed.
Luisa Dillner (author of The Complete Book of Mothers-in-Law : A Celebration) told Gyles that nowadays, the mother-in-law is a valued and much loved family member whose contribution is cherished and appreciated by grateful offspring.
She says we should look beyond the stereotype of the mother-in-law and appreciate that they come in many different varieties, from loveable and loyal to lonely, ferocious and scheming.
So, ok, a lot of mother-in-laws don't live up to the stereotype... but if you have one who does then we want to know.

Update - 24/10/08. Last Friday we featured Bill Currie and his Trappit invention for catching bugs in the home, without hurting the little things.
Marty presented him with his 'British Invention of the Year Award' gold medal live on the programme - but that wasn't the end of it.

17/10/08 - British Invention Show
Marty Jopson went to the annual . Two hundred designers descended on Alexandra Palace to showcase their creative ideas as well as bid for backers to support their inventions.
Marty met Bill Currie - a locksmith by trade but also an avid inventor and a regular at the British Inventors Show. Bill has been taking his inventions to the convention every year since 2003, and has won an award nearly every year he's attended.
This year, Bill's invention for the show is the 'Trappit'. - an attachment for the hose of your vacuum cleaner that allows you to gently suck up insects at arm's length. It's designed to trap the insects so they remain unharmed, allowing you to free them later.
The British have come up with some great inventions - television, football, computers, the steam engine - to name just a few. See also: and .
So, if you've had a eureka moment, let us know. What are you inventing at the moment and what inspired you to create it? Or better still - what do you think needs to be invented?

Nothing ever came of it though, not like the X-Factor nowadays where everyone seems to make a living out of one tv appearance !!! I've kept up the playing though (on and off) and don't think I'll ever stop now. I've had my current bass for about 20+ years now and there's no way I'll ever part with it."

For The One Show Marty Jopson has been investigating the scare stories around using a mobile phone.
He looks at three popular mobile phone stories. In brief;
1) Marty concludes that mobile phones don't cause brain tumours - but studies are ongoing.
2) Do mobiles cause explosions at petrol stations? Marty says it's not mobile phones, but static electricity that can ignite petrol. He says phones shouldn't be used when you're filling the car because they're a distraction.
3) Should you make calls on the hospital ward? Marty discovered that in some special circumstances mobile phones can interfere with hospital equipment. So keep mobiles out of cardiac wards and if in doubt, ask.
Do you feel your mobile phone is safe? Also; Do you know of a 'tech myth' that Marty should investigate?
