A look at water as something we consume. We all need to drink water to stay alive, but is what's on offer what we really need? Is bottled water better than what comes out of the tap, and how much are we willing to pay for added extras in the pursuit of health benefits?

Richard and Alexis explore the origins of the bottled water industry, how it is so profitable, and why it has long been a symbol of our values and status.
