Londoners aren't always good at getting to know their neighbours. Sometimes it feels like even the city's suburbs are trying to avoid eye contact. In this episode we go out East to meet Freddie, James and Dan; three Londoners in their mid-20s who grew up in the postcode of East 18.

We met in South Woodford to talk about everything from football tribalism to Grime music, from mushy peas to the future of English identity.

WARNING: There's a mouth-watering fish and chip shop in this episode...
