Rich Brother, Poor Brother

This Cutting Edge documentary explores the wealth gap in Britain through two charismatic but estranged brothers. Multi-millionaire Tory businessman Ivan Massow lives in a luxurious five-storey home in central London and goes hunting in his spare time. His younger brother David ekes out a living as an odd-job man and lives in a white van on a lay-by, with no running water. The brothers' incredibly different lives tell the story of an increasingly divided Britain, where more people than ever before are fast-tracking it to millionaire status, sometimes leaving behind family members who've had less good fortune. So what happens to a family when one sibling suddenly becomes rich, and the other one doesn't?
