There was a one off TV programme on C4 called "Shoreditch Twat" which took the piss quite heavily out of the area. I seem to remember a sketch where a CD consultant came round to flats in Shoreditch to add any fashionable CDs to the residents collectionfor that week and remove any that were no longer desirable.
There was also a sketch where an applicant for a job in a bar was turned down because she wasn't a creative of any kind and "had no japanese friends at all"
I thought it was funny.

Been here for about 3 years, my girlfriend found the flat in Loot and bought it 4 years ago, unfortunately not for £33k though! Bargain :)
Funnily enough a mate of mine has just bought a place that's just off Sidney Street, your Dad's not a carpenter who's moving to Spain is he?

I think it was £215k, 2 bed flat in Lindley House, Lindley St. I think it's ex-council so the seller probably made a right killing on it!
