Great Expectations, part two

from The Documentary Podcast: Archive 2010 · host BBC World Service

Nina Robinson returns to east London for the second part of Great Expectations, the series discovering the community living in the shadows of the London 2012 Olympics. She hears from Hilary, who has two children, about why she does not feel initiatives from the government really work for families like theirs. Nina meets up again with Darrell James who shows her the new investment at the nearby Dalston Junction train station. Darrell says the change here is dramatic, more so than the development happening in the heart of the estate. And we hear from local politicians and decision makers about the 'Legacy' plan - what will happen when the Games are over?
