Rome wasn't built in a day...

Anyone catch Rome wasnt built in a day on channel 4?

Ben the labourer is a local boy.. the show states he's from "deepest South London"..
Ive seen him a few times on the High street and around Forest Hill (in the Hobb)..

The show documents 6 builders building a villa from scratch.. Very entertaining!! He is really funny.. Maybe a positive role model for the young toe rags of Sydenham..

Anyone else recognise him?!!

I didn't see it, but someone from the Forest Hill Society was telling me about it. It sounds also as if FH Soc have some plans for some guerilla gardening in the area where this guy might be useful

Only saw it briefly. Unless I was mistaken most of them looked too overweight and unfit to be builders from Ancient Rome.
