This week George Clarke, architect, designer and tv presenter is fronting a series of programmes to highlight the scandal of empty property throughout.
In an interview Clarke explains that the inspiration for the series came from right here in Saltwell and Bensham. Seeing homes boarded up by Gateshead Council inspired him to highlight the housing crisis. He cites the Pathfinder programme as a national disaster.
He has sharp words for the current government too.
Channel 4 makes the case for refurbishment and renovation over a number of programmes from reporters across the channel.
