Ed Stafford Returns to Expose Life on Britain’s Toughest Estates
After the hit shows 60 Days on the Streets and 60 Days with the Gypsies, Ed Stafford is back with a brand-new 3-part series. This time, he moves in with residents on some of the UK’s most notorious housing estates across London, Scotland, and the Midlands.
For 60 days and nights, Ed and his small crew will capture life behind the grime and headlines. Equipped with his own camera, Ed aims to reveal the real struggles and resilience of those living through Britain’s housing nightmare.
Inside Britain’s Housing Crisis
With a staggering 17.5 million people affected by the UK housing crisis, Ed’s journey dives into the heart of neglected communities. He’ll see first-hand how people battle the worst cost-of-living crisis in decades amid rising gang violence and addiction.
But it’s not all doom and gloom. Ed will also witness neighbourhoods banding together, fighting back against incredible odds.
Ed Breaks the Stigma
“Before I started filming this series, all I really knew about council estates were stories I read in the media about gangs, crime and drugs. I wanted to go beyond the negative headlines and stereotypes to find out what’s really happening on housing estates today and the challenges people are facing. This series has been a real eye-opener for me.” – Ed Stafford
Channel 4 Praises Ed’s Brave Reporting
“Ed is a fearless filmmaker who immerses himself in communities who rarely get to share their world on TV. This latest instalment of the hugely important 60 Days series is no different and reveals some shocking truths about Britain today.” – Ian Dunkley, Commissioner, Factual Entertainment, Channel 4
