Its 2013 and 80-year-old Frances is sitting on the stairs of Number 3, Chalcot Crescent, Primrose Hill, listening to the debt collectors pounding on her front door. From this house she's witnessed 5 decades of world history - the fall of communism, the death of capitalism - and, with the bailiffs, world history has finally reached her doorstep.
