Julia Somerville, Gloria Hunniford and Angela Rippon look at some of the risks that travelling could present to someone's health, or even their identity, with advice to limit the dangers from the ones that can be avoided. As families reveal how their trips were ruined by infectious diseases, what responsibility does the hotel or tour company have if someone suddenly falls ill? And after an experiment reveals the hidden dangers of taking boarding pass selfies, there is a look at why people's most valuable personal details could be vulnerable. The team's experts tackle more holiday disasters at the programme's pop-up advice clinic, and Simon Calder has an introduction to some of the latest tourist destinations to emerge from the former Soviet Union.
