At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all.
The World Cup: 7/10
Because we watched in droves. It was the biggest TV audience of the year for anything, and we believed we were in with a chance.
Rugby: 3/10
The World Cup's biggest loser. They are killing the game with rules and zealous officialdom.
Mike Pence: 4/10
Another one bites the dust but the fact it’s an ex-Vice President tells you the effect Trump has had on his party.
Votes: 9/10
Because today is the day, at last.
The Electoral Commission: 5/10
I only have sympathy for them because, as we found out, it's the law. They are following the law.
Craft beer: 4/10
Fads are not a business and a lot of people going “Hey, I can do that” does not a bottom line make.
Supie: 4/10
The irony was the receiver told us how competitive the market was, and yet, the Government has told us it's not competitive enough. Which is it?
Hackney Diamonds: 8/10
Number one in the UK, Germany and Australia. Genius never gets old.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
