Description
These days many young people are struggling to rent their own homes. Meanwhile a generation of older people are sitting in big properties with empty rooms... so what would happen if the two moved in together?
Potential flatmates young and old meet at the first ever speed-dating event, exclusively designed to match up old-age pensioners and cash poor millennials. Then the youngsters move in, rent free. Pre-conceptions and prejudices shatter and unlikely friendships form as they learn more about one another than they ever thought possible. But after a week living under one roof, will they want to make the arrangement permanent?
Packed with insight, humour and surprises, this generation gap experiment is a hugely entertaining and life-affirming watch.
