Famous, Rich and Homeless Series 1
Former tennis star Annabel Croft, The One Show’s Hardeep Singh Kholi, journalist and writer Rosie Boycott, former Coronation Street actor Bruce Jones and the Marquis of Blandford put homelessness in the spotlight by agreeing to swap their lavish lifestyles, fame and fortune for a world of sleeping rough, soup runs and hostels. Guided and assisted by John Bird, editor-in-chief and co-founder of The Big Issue, and Craig Last, a former youth worker for the charity Centrepoint, the five spend the first three days and nights of their 10-day experience trying to survive on the streets. Emotions run high as they struggle to cope in the harsh environment and there are tears and clashes before the week is out.
