George Lamb has left the shiny floor behind him and is investigating whether young people in Britain today have been royally screwed over. Escaping from his own self-confessed metropolitan bubble, he travels up and down the country to hear from the voices who have been left out of the mainstream media debates.

He meets a 'just about managing' young mum in Milton Keynes, a nuclear protester in a Scottish peace camp and a housing activist in Brixton who can't get a job or afford a home as his community feels the impact of gentrification.This film sets out to explore some of the big questions that face young people in Britain today - and asks who is responsible for making a change.
