Last year Mary Portas from the series Mary Queen of Shops visited Dunstable and said it was like a cemetery. Two local women, Sharon Knott and Sharon Warboys, weren't having that. They launched a campaign. 'Long Live Dunstable - Don't let Dunstable die' and set out to revive the town. David Whiteley goes in search of the shoots of recovery on the town's high street. He meets the two Sharons and doctor Leigh Sparks of the Institute of Retail Management who arrives to give the town a health check.
