Series 11, Episode 2 - Walthamstow

The comedian visits the east London town of Walthamstow, where he finds a town mid-gentrification: the dog track has gone, the market remains, as does the cafe covered in pictures of Princess Diana. But there's also evidence of a controversial cycling scheme dubbed "Mini Holland", so Mark had better tread carefully when he performs to the locals.
