July. 11,2013

As the economy struggles and everyone feels the pinch, the country is more divided than ever about how much of our taxes should be spent on benefits for the unemployed. In an ambitious experiment, Nick Hewer and Margaret Mountford want to discover how much benefit is enough to live on and if work is worth it. Four claimants and four taxpayers come face-to-face to explore each other's lives, examine their values and speak their minds. Will the tax payers feel that benefits are too high, or not enough? And will the claimants decide that hard work is good for them, or will the sacrifice be too much? Set in Ipswich - a town with typical figures for unemployment - this first episode sees the taxpayers spend time shopping, socialising and going through the claimants' spending to see exactly how their hard-earned taxes are being spent.

In this second episode, the experiment is reversed as the claimants spend time with the taxpayers. Getting up early, working alongside them through long shifts and seeing the effects on family life, the claimants get a taste of the reality of working life. They must decide if they think that work is worth it. With the battle lines drawn between 'scroungers' and 'strivers', this series brings the two sides together to discover if any of them can agree.
