A report on the impact of the changes to immigration rules. A visit to Hemsby, which suffered a tidal surge last December. And the story of Robert Brooke's famous WWI poem.

Families in the East are being separated by changes to immigration rules, which they say are unfair. Some employers say the new rules are damaging their businesses. The tidal surge of the night of December 5th left Steve and Jackie, from Hemsby, homeless. David Whiteley finds out what's happened to them, and whether the villagers' plan to build their own sea defences could protect them from future disasters. And a corner of a field that is forever England. The words of poet Rupert Brooke. We return to The Old Vicarage at Granchester near Cambridge to tell the story of one of the most famous poems of WW1.
