Capital

AudienceAudience: 6.5

Set on a single street in South London, Capital is a portrait of a road transformed by soaring property prices: what was once the home of modest lower-middle class families, Pepys Road has been continuously gentrified into a street of multimillion pound houses. On one day, the people of this South London street all receive an anonymous postcard with the simple message 'we want what you have'. Its unsettling ripples affect every corner of the community.

My take

A sharp, ambitious exploration of wealth, power, and moral ambiguity in the financial world. This miniseries examines the lives of interconnected characters navigating London's elite circles with calculated precision and emotional complexity. Arlo would find the psychological undercurrents and societal critique compelling—it's cerebral storytelling about people chasing capital at any cost.
