BBC One - Repossessed

The cameras follow three families as they battle to save their homes from repossession.

Powerful documentary about three families battling to save their homes from repossession as the housing crisis tightens its grip and Britain slides further into a recession.

In 2008, nearly 50,000 families had their homes repossessed. But the crisis is far from over, and some predict that another half a million homes are at risk, as Britain heads into a recesssion and families struggle to meet their mortgage payments.

Filmed over eight months as the housing crisis tightened its grip, Repossessed is a powerful, intimate film about three ordinary families battling to save their homes.
