Hi Everyone
A NappyValleyNetter forwarded this link to me, it's a new BBC TV drama called Capital situated on SW London (specifically Nappy Valley) focusing on one street with a common thread the clash between the new (very wealthy) inhabitants and those that have lived there much longer.

It was a brilliant book

and it was filmed on Calbourne Road in the Nightingale Triangle so expect lots of "'I'VE BEEN THERE" exclamations from the whole family.

Undercover is on right now!

I'd recognise those houses anywhere!

Sounds like it might be the adaptation of the John Lamchester novel of the same name, published by Faber. If so should be great!

It was brilliant.

Althought it's a bit weird to see him skulking away from nasty spies outside Nandos on Northcote Road. I couldn't help wondering if whilst he is running away I was tottering towards Gails!

...and tonight was the first episode of Marcella, a police drama with Anna Friel. The house she lives in the drama is on Octavia Street in the sisters conservation area by Battersea Park. They have been filming there over the past 6 months!
