The Gadget Show airs on Channel Five in the UK and it is also available on satellite TV and through the Internet via its website. This popular show lasts for an hour and it is now in its tenth year.
The presenters of the show are Jon Bentley, Jason Bradbury and Suzi Perry. Each week they actually test all the latest gadgets and tell viewers what is worth buying.

The majority of schoolchildren today get pocket money. It’s due to the fact that modern parents have less time to consider their children’s needs. They eagerly give them pocket money to solve this contradiction. The question is whether this method is useful and how considerable are children when spending this money.
