The central premise is a {{Reconstruct|ion}}ed, financially realistic RoommateCom. The series follows a group of half-a-dozen twenty-somethings who live together on the same floor in a disused London hospital under a scheme called Property Guardians, where tenants pay cheap rent in exchange for watching over uninhabited buildings that would otherwise be occupied by squatters or fall pray to vandalism. The place is run down and definitely not up to health codes, but its cheap, making it a desirable home for broke oddball young adults.
