West Altadenans Steve Hofvendahl and his wife, Lili Knight, both actors, are sifting through their options.

Lili Myers, the widow of Hairy Biker Dave, said she could not watch the final series of her husband's cookery show following his death from cancer last year.

Eleven-year-old Lili's primary school class is one of the first to be targeted by the new policy, after teachers wrote to their parents urging them to consider "brick phones" - if they felt their child needed something for travelling to school.

Lili said she felt "14 to 15" was about the right age for children to get their first smartphone as by then they might stand a better chance of knowing if something they read online "wasn't true".

Lili's classmate Morgan said she had got a smartphone but had decided to stop using it after learning more about them in school.
