I've just managed to catch up on i-player with this the new film by the documentary maker Sue Bourne.  I loved her film My Street in which she documented all the different people who lived in her street.

There are some wonderful characters here I'd love to know more about. I already know about because I've seen the way the elderly can so easily sink into a solitary and isolated existence when what are often simple problems to the younger and more able become unsurmountable and disabling.  However, I was surprised at the amount of loneliness in younger people - although when people move out or on from home and then there is no home to retreat to I can see that this can be difficult and things can spiral down and out of control.

It's a film that everybody should watch, think about and do something about!  I don't think any of these people expected to be lonely.
