Im only watching BBC1 because Matthew Wright is on summer break

Turned this on yeaterday and am now addicted to it.
Love the woman who transformed her London council estate into a nicer place to live with play areas etc.
I also like that theyre not showing normal stereotypical crap, the people on the Bristol estate seem lovely and really want to make a better community for themselves and their children.

Go on tell me I need to get a life

I watched this at the gym yesterday morning, but didn't see it today (at work!)

Is she making progress? That Silla is incredible.

The previous series set in Plymouth was fantastic, the changes they made were breathtaking and Silla was at the heart of it.
This series isn't quite as good - I think there's only a small handful of tenants involved, but still great to see them making positive changes.

I live on a council estate, well it's prob now about 70% private but we have a residents/tenants association and try to improve the appearance of the estate where possible through fundraising etc.

Agree that Silla is an inspiration.
