Series Summary
The real story of how Britain bought into the dream of home ownership. It's a concept that's gripped the national imagination and one that holds the promise of a better life through ownership rather than tenancy.
But there's more to this story than dreams coming true: do you own your home or does the mortgage company own you? Does your address tell more about you than you'd like? And what are the highs and lows of gentrification?
