Just watched the show poll for 2007,
WORST PLACE: Middlesbrough
BEST PLACE: Edinburgh
might have to make a visit to Scotland to see for myself, must say looked really nice on the show and from what I can remember when I went and collected my first 350z from Edinburgh
Unfortunatly my mum was born and bred in the worst place of U.K but escaped to London when she was 16
Surrey areas all made in the Top Ten, parents are moving to Tunbridge Wells so nice to see good comments, but Edinburgh sure looks young and vibrant and very cosmo
Might as well add here here are the Top 20 Best and Top 20 Worst places to live in England should anyone be thinking of where to move for 2007 and didnt see the show

Surprised Islington made it on the worst list and shocked that Hackney is not in the top 3 of the worst list
