The Invasion of Islington

A Cornish village is on the edge of extinction, due to losing vital services. So, the population travels to London to get its voice heard.

Presenter Tim Samuels joins an entire Cornish village, which is on the brink of extinction, as they pack up sheep, cows and morris dancers to travel en masse to London and seize the frappuccino-swilling New Labour heartland of Islington. Lanreath has lost its post office, shop, pub, bus service - and now their beloved primary school is under threat. Pushed to breaking point, the countryside comes to town to get its voice heard.
