"Show me your money."
A Channel4 series of shows which deal with large financial issues on the small, personal, scale.
Last night the show followed an experiment in wage-levelling featuring the workforce of Pimlico Plumbing and it's boss Charlie Mullins. [a right 'geeza' with a practical approach]

The firm, with 150 vans, works on drains and domestic heating and plumbing. The tradesmen earn between £80-£120k, working long hours and the canteen lady gets about £14.5k for her 13 hour day (door to door). The wage structure, up to now, has been rather hap-hazard. The task was to get them all to reveal what money they're on and to ask some to take a wage-cut so that others could get more. Very interesting indeed.
