Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play.  Capital is a witty, colourful and sharply observed drama about the interconnected lives of a diverse group of characters linked to a fictional street. Adapted by Bafta-winner Peter Bowker from the bestselling novel by John Lanchester,the series cleverly interweaves a vivid and unforgettable ensemble cast of urban characters in a story bursting with unfailingly piercing and funny observations on modern life and existence. One day, the street’s residents all receive an anonymous postcard through their front doors bearing a simple message: “We want what you have”. Who is behind the anonymous hate campaign? And what do they want? As the mystery of the postcards deepens, interweaving stories reveal lives filled with love and loss, fear and greed,fortune and envy, and at its heart, family and home.

Toby Jones stars in this three-part BBC adaptation of John Lanchester's novel. The drama centres around the residents of the fictional Pepys Road in South London, where houses cost a small fortune. Occupiers of the street vary from those who have lived there since before the London property boom, including elderly widow Petunia Howe (Gemma Jones), to the recently moved in wealthier residents, including banker Roger Hunt (Jones). After all of the street's residents receive mysterious postcards bearing the message 'We want what you have', the interweaving connections between them begin to unravel.
