In the first programme of this series Hardeep cooks lunch for Anne and Terry Panks. Now in their 80s you might assume they are living a quiet life, enjoying retirement. But nothing could be further from the truth. 40 years ago Anne and Terry converted a dilapidated police station in Wythenshawe, south Manchester, into a hostel called "Copperdale" and over the years have provided a home for almost a thousand vulnerable and sometimes very troubled young men. Whilst two miles away one of their sons has converted a ruined Church into a gym and cultural centre for inner city young people. As Hardeep prepares lunch for them and their extended family he discovers what motives them to try to help these men lead better and more fulfilled lives.
