Brian Cox (Succession) explores the extremes of wealth and poverty in the US and UK, shining a light on inequality.
With the worlds richest 1% owning half of the global wealth - what does this mean for the poorest?
As the world is faced with the worst cost of living crisis in generations, celebrated actor Brian Cox (Succession) turns documentary filmmaker and presenter, travelling to the front lines of the exploding wealth gap.
With candid humour, humanity, and intrepid curiosity, we follow Brian as he rolls up his sleeves in a soup kitchen in the Bronx, mingles with supermodels on Miami Beach, meets the homless in Harlem and drops in on a billionaire in London's most expensive home.
Brian's passion and interviewing skills illuminate a wold in which a small but growing group of billioaires account for more than half of the world's wealth, while the social safety net of the very poorest is being swept away on both sides of the Atlantic.
