Young people ask George, an older person about his life and the housing estate he lives on. He appears to be quite deaf, it’s difficult to get answers from him. A woman shows the crew around George’s house, including the pantry and a very dirty outside toilet. The house is extremely rundown and looks unsuitable for habitation.
A young woman who’s lived on the estate 10 years is asked about living there. She talks about the lack of facilities for children and the poor state of the houses. She shows the crew the repairs that need doing to her house, including a serious mould and damp problem.
A gang of young boys playing in a vacant house on the estate talk to the interviewers. Kids play around wrecked buildings.
Teenage boys talk about the lack of places they have to play football. One boy talks about breaking both his legs when he was knocked over by a car. Other young boys talk about also having been knocked over.
A teenage girl sits in a living room and asks an elderly woman about living in the estate and whether she’d like to have somewhere to go for a cup of tea etc.
Tracking poor at this stage of the tape: A man cradling a baby is asked the same questions - says the houses are a disgrace; the residents are ‘miserable as sin’.
Poor Tracking: Another elderly woman is asked about conditions and young people on the estate.
Two women are asked about the street they live on. Like everybody else they want the houses to be brought up to standard and a place for kids to play.
