This documentary series follows the community of Jaywick in Essex, where more than half of the residents are living on benefits. High levels of unemployment have turned the once-thriving seaside village into one of the most blighted areas in the country. Cameras capture images of the Brooklands estate, a part of Jaywick that is highly deprived. Episodes show local resident Carl being evicted, landlords inspecting damage to their properties, and a former armed robber from London's East End living in a caravan that has heating problems.

F*ck Em, these people on here are in the situation they are in because of their own doing. Nobody forces you to take Heroin, or Drink or embark on having bad relationships, sh*te tattoo's all paid for by those that f'kin work their b*llocks off. End of the day it's Tough Sh*t, you only get out of life what you put into it.

Think Fred’s a bit dillusional if he thinks he’s an ex hard man when he calls a pellet rifle a “gun”. Truth is, any hard men from that area, none of them associate themselves with the Krays for obvious reasons…….

The fact that fred only wanted something to do with his son if the mother would have him back shows that the son is probably better off not knowing him, he walked away from his family years ago you cant just expect someone just to take you back because you are now lonely and reaping the consequences of walking away from your family.

Im watching this, and im so thankful to god for what i have. I cant be scumm**ies like that with a 6yo boy, single mother with health issues. I pay my rent, bills, n food. I prioritise the main outcomes first. Nothing is left over from benefit for cigs or booze tho im not into this stuff neither drugs, gambling etc. I even top up my rent £250pm. Hardships and struggling is an understatement.
