Taking Care of Business, Episode 01:

There’s a jolly little Londis with a green and white striped awning. Sue Elliott-Nicholls has a sweet time with Priyesh, Mayank and Anju at their cornershop on the edge of Stoke Newington Common. While Judy goes to East Ham in search of her grandmother Martha Eckstein. A woman she never met.

Enterprise. Family. Attitude. Sue Elliott-Nicholls takes us from N16 to E6 with people who’ve made our boroughs what they are today. We celebrate a shop, a common, a cemetery and an approach to life, to find a place in the family of things.
