Episode Details

A power cut and roadworks have turned a beloved local café into a disaster zone—Caffé Tucci’s owner Salvatore Capasso is facing a 50% drop in takings, staff layoffs, and nearly 40kg of spoiled food after fridges failed. With daily losses hitting £1,500 and rent and wages still due, the independent business is teetering—while nearby barbershop Taylor Taylor also suffered, forced to cut hair in the dark and rent a hotel room. For small businesses, this isn’t a hiccup—it’s a crisis. Northern Powergrid has apologized and is working to restore service, but the ripple effects are already hurting the community.
