We've updated our G20 numbers. Meeting in London this week, they are a mixed bunch. From the very rich to the emerging economies, these numbers show how they compare - everything from unemployment to GDP to happiness. Now includes financial stimulus, green spending, suicide rates and TV ownership.

This is the update of something we produced last week, when we wrote about different ways of measuring a country's wellbeing. At a time when the world economy has so manifestly let us down, do these other numbers give us an alternative measure of success?
