Oh yeah? I assumed the shows were going for a "relatable part of London for Joe Public who lives elsewhere", where should they have used?


I guess for My Family it's believable, as he was dentist + it started about 20 years ago + they'd owned the house for about ten years at the start of the show.
Outnumbered, started about 10 years ago + he's a teacher + they lived there a while, plus they were often having money troubles.

Not Going Out - he sells cars, she's a stay at home mum and headhunter, so I guess that's the least believable! Unless her rich parents bought it outright for them.
