Presenter Kadambari Raghukumar visits the Krishna Temple in West Auckland and mingles with crowds of rainbow-powdered revellers at the Holi Festival. Baljit Kaur Dheil talks about her work at Woman Care Trust supporting mature Indian women with yoga, computer and English classes, and for 70-year-old runner Balbir Singh age is no barrier to fitness.
