Tim and Kev head to London to explore a radical 1960s housing development where prospective residents must pass an interview before moving in. But will they make the cut?

Winscombe Street consists of five terrace houses in Camden, London, England, designed by the architect Neave Brown for himself and a collective of four other families in the mid 1960s.
