Episode synopsis
This week Grayson focuses on the middle class as he continues his exploration of British tastes, trends and lifestyles. He visits a new executive housing development in Kent where he believes the residents are more materialistic, and keen to separate themselves from their old working-class backgrounds. He then explores the more traditionally middle-class residents of Tunbridge Wells, who, with their organic food, gastropubs, vintage furniture and dinner parties are more self-conscious about what their taste decisions say about them. Finally, he invites the people he meets to view the tapestries he has made about them.
