The Estate: Life Up North
Channel 5
2021
Elspeth Fisher: Casting Producer
This warm-hearted documentary series follows the lives and stories of people living and working in the North–Eastern town of Washington, England. Filmed over six-months, this series aims to break the 'poverty-porn' narrative of the working-class docu-series that had been perpetuated by previous national coverage on the same topic.
“Praise for Channel 5 Washington TV show…A Washington councillor says he has been delighted with how the town is presented in a new national TV series.” - Sunderland Echo
