The documentary series exploring Britain's social security system.

In a wind swept field five miles from the centre of Glasgow stands a forgotten corner of Britain's social security system. For 30 years the Bishopbriggs Resettlement Unit - or the "spike" - offered a meal and a bed to homeless men. In exchange, they were expected to work. As a charity takes over the building, staff and residents reflect on the uncertain future for Britain's homeless.
