:00:00. > :00:08.Here's what's coming up on tonight's show.
:00:09. > :00:10.We investigate the classified ads website that has been hijacked
:00:11. > :00:22.We are trying to find out why you are peddling cocaine.
:00:23. > :00:26.Why record numbers of women are putting their eggs on ice.
:00:27. > :00:30.I would love to be a mum one day, not necessarily right now.
:00:31. > :00:33.This is allowing me to buy time and terms of how long
:00:34. > :00:42.And as more music venues in London shut down we meet the artists
:00:43. > :00:49.Some days you come out and you would do in hour
:00:50. > :00:53.and you will make 50 and sometimes you will make 150.
:00:54. > :01:07.It's just depends what spot you get, the weather, all the variables.
:01:08. > :01:09.Tonight the shocking findings of an undercover investigation
:01:10. > :01:12.into the availability of illegal products and services online.
:01:13. > :01:14.Over the past six months we have the looking at craigslist,
:01:15. > :01:17.the classified ads website which is being hijacked by criminals
:01:18. > :01:23.Jonathan Gibson has this exclusive report.
:01:24. > :01:27.As an investigative journalist of the sometimes easier to work
:01:28. > :01:33.When people aren't watching what you are doing.
:01:34. > :01:39.If you are looking for something illegal it is the go to part
:01:40. > :01:46.of the internets that is hidden from prying eyes.
:01:47. > :01:48.The place criminals are using encrypted websites
:01:49. > :01:56.You don't need to bother with all that, mate.
:01:57. > :02:04.Shouldn't you be getting on with the...
:02:05. > :02:24.Craigslist, it was set up in America by a guy called Craig.
:02:25. > :02:27.It's a website for people buy and sell everything
:02:28. > :02:36.Just say where you live and get started.
:02:37. > :02:40.But a lot of the stuff on craigslist will not be in the buy and sell
:02:41. > :02:46.section of your local newspaper including bootleg tobacco.
:02:47. > :02:48.The kind of cigarettes you would probably buy from some
:02:49. > :02:51.dodgy geezer outside a pub or in this case
:02:52. > :03:00.They have the packaging but they cannot resell
:03:01. > :03:12.So he's just a middleman, he says his supplier
:03:13. > :03:15.I've seen some crazy stuff on craigslist.
:03:16. > :03:23.That is why I have come to another car park ready
:03:24. > :03:32.And that is why his tobacco is just a third of the price
:03:33. > :03:43.But there's a difference because counterfeit goods
:03:44. > :03:48.are amongst the things craigslist says you are not supposed
:03:49. > :03:54.Stuff that is illegal but no one takes any notice of that.
:03:55. > :04:03.It's as easy to find marijuana on craigslist
:04:04. > :04:09.And you might need a seat because what I am buying next
:04:10. > :04:15.I am on a Derby estate to meet a dealer selling
:04:16. > :04:31.Turns out as street cocaine goes it is pretty pure stuff.
:04:32. > :04:38.I'm shocked at what is there because it is not difficult
:04:39. > :04:41.for the internet companies to put elements onto their websites to be
:04:42. > :04:46.And they should be policing it and taking it down.
:04:47. > :04:49.But if you have made money from crime, you will not want
:04:50. > :05:04.But where would I find someone to do that?
:05:05. > :05:07.On a street corner and I am meeting Stacey.
:05:08. > :05:09.She is offering her bank account on craigslist to anyone
:05:10. > :05:23.But we are walking into the bank to pay in what I have
:05:24. > :05:28.She will charge me a fee to get it back and there are plenty of people
:05:29. > :05:30.on craigslist offering to do the same thing.
:05:31. > :05:36.Sometimes through overseas bank accounts.
:05:37. > :05:38.But if you have sent money overseas, how
:05:39. > :05:43.What you need is a new identity or better still somebody else's.
:05:44. > :05:47.I know just the place you can get it.
:05:48. > :05:59.The place where I can find a stolen passport in Kent.
:06:00. > :06:13.And there are plenty more where that came from.
:06:14. > :06:16.I've known some stories with it has taken people ten years to get
:06:17. > :06:20.After it has been completely trashed by people who have
:06:21. > :06:24.But it will allow you to get on and commit other crimes.
:06:25. > :06:28.And it's not just about selling stuff.
:06:29. > :06:31.This advert is looking for London postmen to steal the letters
:06:32. > :06:35.It is bank cards, checks, a lot of different things.
:06:36. > :06:38.On craigslist there is also disorganised crime.
:06:39. > :06:41.In Slough, this man wants someone to pass his driving
:06:42. > :06:53.But for ?50 at is not that black and white.
:06:54. > :06:56.For a start he is black and I am white and someone
:06:57. > :07:05.They check your photo against a database.
:07:06. > :07:15.There's no point, there is no way I am going to get through.
:07:16. > :07:18.When I later revealed I am a journalist he did not
:07:19. > :07:23.In fact when we asked it for an interview this
:07:24. > :07:31.And that came from the top, the Chief Executive's office.
:07:32. > :07:35.I think while they are making money and nobody is asking them or forcing
:07:36. > :07:39.them to try and change what is going on, you will find
:07:40. > :07:42.a site like this using the ostrich effect of what is going on,
:07:43. > :07:48.No wonder criminals can carry on regardless.
:07:49. > :07:52.Well, unless they are really selling to a journalist.
:07:53. > :07:59.I would like to know how you out offering to sell...
:08:00. > :08:06.Oh my God, my mother is going to kill me.
:08:07. > :08:09.But he's not the only one thinking about his relatives.
:08:10. > :08:16.I am trying to make money for my family.
:08:17. > :08:20.Take a good look at my cocaine dealer because he is
:08:21. > :08:30.And we are trying to find out why you are a peddling cocaine.
:08:31. > :08:47.I am trying to find out why you are willing
:08:48. > :09:04.Just like my passport thief back here in Kent.
:09:05. > :09:09.I am not buying a passport off you because I work for the BBC.
:09:10. > :09:12.I want to know why you are selling stolen passports.
:09:13. > :09:14.Why are you selling stolen passports?
:09:15. > :09:17.The amount of organised crime sitting behind other
:09:18. > :09:26.It is critical that the police force, law enforcement agencies
:09:27. > :09:28.force the likes of craigslist to do something about it.
:09:29. > :09:33.When we asked to interview a minister all we got was
:09:34. > :09:48.Well, we've kind of done that for them already.
:09:49. > :09:52.So maybe it is time the Government forced websites like craigslist
:09:53. > :10:12.Busking has become more and more sexy.
:10:13. > :10:16.More and more people want to do it and people see it as a great
:10:17. > :10:22.way of developing their performance skills and building an audience.
:10:23. > :10:27.Building a fan base is the biggest thing you can do as a musician.
:10:28. > :10:34.Over the past couple of years corporate
:10:35. > :10:37.giants like Apple and Facebook have made headlines by offering to freeze
:10:38. > :10:41.Here in the capital putting your eggs on
:10:42. > :10:42.ice is becoming increasingly popular.
:10:43. > :10:45.One London fertility Centre says that numbers have tripled in
:10:46. > :10:48.But what are the risks of this costly process and
:10:49. > :10:50.does it actually offer any guarantees?
:10:51. > :10:52.Life coach and agony aunt Anna Williamson has been
:10:53. > :11:05.It is something I would like to experience
:11:06. > :11:08.in life and I am not necessarily in a relationship or time when I
:11:09. > :11:16.Natasha has been a professional opera singer for the past 20 years.
:11:17. > :11:21.When work stops you realise you want something else as well.
:11:22. > :11:23.I have probably lived a lot of denial
:11:24. > :11:27.about it because I have been, I am working and I am doing this.
:11:28. > :11:29.But then life is life and I have just
:11:30. > :11:32.realised that there's more to it than just one aspect of it.
:11:33. > :11:35.Natasha's story is a familiar one and as a life coach it is
:11:36. > :11:39.something that I am hearing more and more.
:11:40. > :11:42.Women are meeting partners later in life, and their 30s and 40s
:11:43. > :11:46.and as a result of putting off having babies until much later.
:11:47. > :11:48.The problem with this is that fertility
:11:49. > :11:55.I am in a situation at my age now when
:11:56. > :11:58.everybody else has what I consider that a dream, they have had
:11:59. > :12:04.I just feel a separateness so that is definitely a
:12:05. > :12:09.I guess it does give me a little bit of sadness
:12:10. > :12:23.At 41, Natasha has taken the decision
:12:24. > :12:27.In the hope that one day her dream of having a baby
:12:28. > :12:36.Today we are hoping to find the follicles ready to be
:12:37. > :12:39.collected and to understand how many eggs we are expecting.
:12:40. > :12:46.I am excited and a little bit nervous at the same time.
:12:47. > :13:01.So I have done the best route I know, a 0% credit card.
:13:02. > :13:05.For the past 11 days Natasha has been injecting a drug to
:13:06. > :13:07.stimulate our ovaries and increase egg production.
:13:08. > :13:11.There are always side-effects of any medication.
:13:12. > :13:17.There are more short-term side-effects.
:13:18. > :13:19.If you are using an injection every day in your stomach
:13:20. > :13:22.you start to get just a little bit sore from
:13:23. > :13:23.the actual area where the
:13:24. > :13:26.Probably just a little bit of bloating but really I felt
:13:27. > :13:31.For Natasha the emotional side has been
:13:32. > :13:40.This is a second round of egg collecting as her
:13:41. > :13:43.I do not want the same thing to happen again
:13:44. > :13:47.and be one of the 1% to 3% that does not have any eggs.
:13:48. > :13:50.So I am really hoping for a better result today.
:13:51. > :13:59.This is the right ovary, one dominant follicle on the right.
:14:00. > :14:04.We want at least 18 millimetres so just perfect.
:14:05. > :14:06.The scan shows it is good news for Natasha.
:14:07. > :14:10.I think if they could get five or six eggs I would be very
:14:11. > :14:19.If the biologically optimum time to have a baby is between 18
:14:20. > :14:22.and 30 but that is not necessarily socially the optimal time, what can
:14:23. > :14:26.This London clinic expects to see a 41% increase in social egg
:14:27. > :14:33.Egg freezing is one of the potential solutions that has been developed.
:14:34. > :14:35.32-year-old Sharon has already decided she wants
:14:36. > :14:41.The core reason for me wanting to do this is
:14:42. > :14:52.I guess that this is allowing me to kind
:14:53. > :15:00.woman of my age in their 30s that is lots of energy going on in the
:15:01. > :15:04.I don't have much of a determination there but I have
:15:05. > :15:07.instead chosen to put my energy into egg freezing instead.
:15:08. > :15:09.This doctor has been researching the social
:15:10. > :15:12.impact of egg freezing at the London women's clinic.
:15:13. > :15:16.Why the increase in women seeking egg freezing?
:15:17. > :15:20.It seems that the main reason women choose to
:15:21. > :15:22.freeze their eggs is because they haven't yet met the right
:15:23. > :15:27.They just want to buy a little bit more time or just feel a
:15:28. > :15:30.What would you say to people that perhaps think it
:15:31. > :15:35.I think the biggest potential risk of something
:15:36. > :15:39.like egg freezing is that people have a false sense of security, that
:15:40. > :15:42.they will feel they are guaranteed to have children when they want them
:15:43. > :15:45.when of course that is not necessarily the case.
:15:46. > :15:47.You are increasing your chances but we
:15:48. > :15:50.certainly cannot say that egg freezing guarantees anybody children
:15:51. > :15:57.In the laboratory, Natasha's eggs have been collected
:15:58. > :16:12.She five mature eggs which can now be frozen.
:16:13. > :16:15.It's just means that there is a chance for me to produce
:16:16. > :16:19.a life and to be a mother because I think I would be pretty
:16:20. > :16:23.So we have the eggs, what happens next?
:16:24. > :16:29.We move the eggs from the solution onto the straw under the
:16:30. > :16:31.microscope and then put it straight into liquid nitrogen.
:16:32. > :16:33.And this allows the eggs to go from room
:16:34. > :16:47.What are the chances of these eggs actually resulting in a baby?
:16:48. > :16:52.In 2013 the national success rate was just 14%.
:16:53. > :16:54.Women over the age of 38 that statistic
:16:55. > :16:59.Clinics are saying those techniques have
:17:00. > :17:04.improved but that is no recent data to prove this.
:17:05. > :17:06.What is for sure is that it really has a long journey
:17:07. > :17:10.from freezing your eggs to actually giving birth to a real life baby.
:17:11. > :17:20.He is one of 60 babies to be born from
:17:21. > :17:24.It is a miracle and I am really lucky and it is like
:17:25. > :17:29.I sometimes have to pinch myself that it has actually
:17:30. > :17:38.48-year-old Claire froze some eggs nine years ago when she
:17:39. > :17:42.It was very important for me to have a
:17:43. > :17:44.family and it was something I always wanted.
:17:45. > :17:47.Things were not going in the direction I wanted them to and that
:17:48. > :17:58.Claire's plan of finding a man to have a child with
:17:59. > :18:01.never happened so last year she decided to take action.
:18:02. > :18:04.I had given myself a deadline of 45 but I got
:18:05. > :18:11.to 46 and I thought I am just going to do it, it is now or never.
:18:12. > :18:13.Claire thought half of frozen eggs which
:18:14. > :18:29.Then they transferred the one above average embryo and my body took it
:18:30. > :18:36.and I was pregnant. I still have relevant eggs left some eBay you
:18:37. > :18:40.will have a sublingual one day. At the clinic Natasha is pleased with
:18:41. > :18:47.the outcome. I feel like I have done something that has given me kind of
:18:48. > :18:55.an insurance and a way. If plan a doesn't work so far it has not so I
:18:56. > :18:58.feel really good about that. After all of that process this is the
:18:59. > :19:03.final destination. In this room there are potentially thousands of
:19:04. > :19:12.babies just like Frankie. In this container there are over 4000 eggs
:19:13. > :19:15.including Natasha is from women who have chosen to freeze their eggs to
:19:16. > :19:25.be used at a later date. That is a lot of babies. Since the heyday in
:19:26. > :19:29.the 1980s, many small music venues have struggled to survive. In the
:19:30. > :19:33.past decade around 40% have closed down. For new artists that means
:19:34. > :19:36.fewer places to hone their skills and make a living which is why more
:19:37. > :19:39.are now taking to the streets to bask. We went to meet some of the
:19:40. > :20:15.aspiring music stars of tomorrow. This is John, a London busker. He
:20:16. > :20:18.follows a long line of stars show was performed on the streets. He is
:20:19. > :20:23.already good enough to play in any concert tour anywhere in the world.
:20:24. > :20:27.But I have also been aware of heeding the streets of London being
:20:28. > :20:31.played badly for the 1000th time of having my own personal space taken
:20:32. > :20:37.up by the musical mothers who insist on jumping on the tube. Performing
:20:38. > :20:42.on the street is perfectly legal and buskers can be found all over the
:20:43. > :20:45.capital. The former Mayor of London Boris Johnson decided that basking
:20:46. > :20:46.would be a great thing to make a city more vibrant so wanted to
:20:47. > :21:12.encourage high quality Street music. The Mayor of London's office now has
:21:13. > :21:15.its own team and musical experts about to promote good music but
:21:16. > :21:18.advise it would be buskers as to what they should and should not do
:21:19. > :21:25.including not blasting loud music into people's years. They divide the
:21:26. > :21:29.buskers scored talking to performers and councils and businesses and
:21:30. > :21:34.landowners and the police and unions and it is a common-sense set of
:21:35. > :21:38.guidelines that covers noise levels and are not setting up where there
:21:39. > :21:44.is nowhere for people to pass by. You do not want pedestrians having
:21:45. > :21:49.to step into the road. Noise charges can be one of the biggest source of
:21:50. > :21:57.complaints and we acknowledge that. You do not want to be a blasting out
:21:58. > :22:01.the 20 metres of the road. The seasoned busker is that you can
:22:02. > :22:04.produce the sound you actually want from a battery-powered lamp. You do
:22:05. > :22:05.not need Adidas owned, you want to create a nice atmosphere for your
:22:06. > :22:27.audience. Most buskers today are aware of and
:22:28. > :22:31.follow the code. Tim was just 13 when he started busking, he is now
:22:32. > :22:34.17 and is a great example of the 17 and is a great example of the
:22:35. > :22:39.serious news Schmidt using the street and says stage. I'm it out
:22:40. > :22:44.and tried it and made a lot more money than I thought and had a lot
:22:45. > :22:49.more fun than I thought and since then I was a little bit addicted.
:22:50. > :22:51.This year I have been doing a bit of travelling around Europe to
:22:52. > :23:01.different cities to try and find the best bots. As London one of the best
:23:02. > :23:04.You could come out one day and it is You could come out one day and it is
:23:05. > :23:08.great and another day it could not go so well so I have done Oxford
:23:09. > :23:14.Street and Kings Cross and Borough Market and a couple of gigs in
:23:15. > :23:17.Shoreditch. I like Oxford Street because any what a lot of places
:23:18. > :23:23.around London there are queueing systems from the buskers so you
:23:24. > :23:28.cannot play a lot of the time, you end up waiting. Also street you find
:23:29. > :23:35.a free spot and just play. On it on a good day, how much would you make?
:23:36. > :23:41.On Oxford Street at p, some days you will do one hour and he will make
:23:42. > :23:45.?50 and Sundays ?150 so it's depends on what spot you get and the
:23:46. > :23:57.weather, all the videos. Reed variables. Do you pray for a talent
:23:58. > :23:59.scout? I checked my e-mail which saw me busking today and asked me to
:24:00. > :24:03.come in for a meeting and it is the come in for a meeting and it is the
:24:04. > :24:07.co-founder of iTunes and he works with Apple music and are starting a
:24:08. > :24:11.new company which he signed me too, a music distribution companies and
:24:12. > :24:16.here's my manager and they said the operative in writing sessions with
:24:17. > :24:28.actors and producers so I am writing and collaborating at the moment have
:24:29. > :24:31.lots of different people. Thank you. Busking has become more and more
:24:32. > :24:36.sexy. More and more people want to do it and people see it as a great
:24:37. > :24:39.way of developing their performance skills and building an audience,
:24:40. > :24:42.building a fan base is the biggest thing you can do as a musician and
:24:43. > :24:48.busking becomes a great alternative. You are out and a public space, you
:24:49. > :24:50.have requested audience always changing. You can change with them,
:24:51. > :25:19.it is a great practice area. So popular has busking become that
:25:20. > :25:24.extra venues are now needed to. Busking on private land is illegal
:25:25. > :25:28.without the owner's permission. Some landowners now see it as an image
:25:29. > :25:32.enhancer. The stables market in Camden went to the Mayor of London's
:25:33. > :25:39.office seeking out top-quality performance. We have had a talk
:25:40. > :25:45.busking but generally it has been discouraged. That is a vibrant and
:25:46. > :25:50.diverse committee in Camden but sometimes in terms of performance
:25:51. > :25:56.to monitor. And the standard of to monitor. And the standard of
:25:57. > :26:02.performance as a very varied job you wanted to create a space where
:26:03. > :26:03.people could come and perform and it would enhance people's experience of
:26:04. > :26:31.Camden rather than distract. Camden market is most certainly
:26:32. > :26:38.enhanced by this funky flamenco and it seems that basking can actually
:26:39. > :26:42.help lift the mood of our city. The day after the attacks around London
