The random postcode generator takes us to an industrial estate in Milton Keynes, where we meet 75 year old Neville, an ex Jimi Hendrix roadie turned pornographer

The random postcode generator takes us to an industrial estate in Milton Keynes. As lockdown starts to ease, one of the few places open is the Reuse Centre, a "community resource" offering cheap second hand and ex-display goods and furniture. It's run by John Mann, a self-confessed "Arthur Daley" who is friends with some of Britain's top criminals. But producer Jolyon Jenkins also bumps into one of the centre's clients, 75 year old Neville Chesters, an ex roadie who worked for some of the top rock bands of the sixties and seventies. Neville, it turns out, also had a second career as a pornographic film director - and has spent much of his life in shady enterprises, twice moving continent to stay one step ahead of the law and his creditors.

Neville is a minor celebrity in the rock world, but he's also keeping a low profile. "I've got to die soon, before certain people put the dots together," he says. He wants to tell his life story. but will he ever get round to doing it?

Producer/presenter: Jolyon Jenkins
