The Planners

interesting episode of BBC2 fly-on-the-wall documentary, 'The Planners'
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01qrt24/The_Planners_Episode_3/

A Cheshire businessman on the brink of financial ruin is hoping that his fourth attempt to get planning permission to build 31 new houses will finally get the go ahead. Rochdale's Shia Muslims clash with the planners over the design of the extension to their local community centre. Two residents go head-to-head over the erection of a two-foot fence on an open plan estate in Cheltenham. And in Stroud, a wife defends her husband's right to build a large shed to house his beloved trucks....

- Interesting how different sides are presented in this series, who gets filmed and how (eg at home with kids etc)
