We won Silver at the British Podcast awards for The Trapped! Our documentary series on the housing crisis. So proud of our little team, up against massive podcasts, loads of BBC productions and Audible. Thanks @itvnews for letting us make it and tell the story to a new audience.

When I joined ITV News I was so excited to meet @DanielHewittITV a truly brilliant journalist. The investigation he, @imogenbarrer & others carried out into housing in Britain was as harrowing as it was groundbreaking. The Trapped is a must listen 👇 by them & David Williams
