I accept your point linsay, but this programme was not just about HBC it was a nationwide thing showing the plight of the many thousands of families who's home are due for demolition at the govs instruction, regeneration they call it, I call it destroying local communities, communities that have been in existance for many years. The programme producers deserve a medal for highlighting the problem on national TV. All it needs is designers with a little flair, the houses no matter how long they have been empty, could be upgraded to meet all current regulations etc, at a portion of the cost of demolition and rebuild. Thus saving the gov, and us tax payers a vast sum of money
