Million Pound Selfie Sell-Off

How many followers do you have? The rise of social media has brought with it a new kind of celebrity, the digital influencer. These megastars of Instagram and YouTube have upended the advertising industry by converting their virtual followers into real-world currency.

Panorama reporter Catrin Nye investigates whether companies are being up front and the impact this new form of advertising is having on consumers.
