Focus makes its final stop at the home counties before heading further afield for a few weeks with tomorrows issue looking at Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Jamie Oliver's home county: Essex. And while the Naked Chef's home village of Clavering probably needs little regenerative attention there are other towns that do.

Daniel explores progress on some of the counties key regeneration projects examining the widening gap between ambition and achievement in these tough financial times. He also casts his eye over the general health of the property market and discovers that Hertfordshire is outdoing it's neighbours in office market lettings.

While Melanie turns her attention to the beleaguered housing market, discovering starkly contrasting strategies from the local authorities and with differing results.

Maybe Jamie Oliver could sprinkle some of his success gold dust a bit closer to home.
