The gang wonders how to avoid passive aggression, fights and cheese theft in a house share. Sophie Duker, Heidi Regan and Ned Sedgwick are joined by comedian and veteran housemate Alex Edelman to talk about flat 'pre-nups', annoying pranks and 'friendly' notes of complaint. Sophie wants to decriminalise communal food theft, Heidi researches whether living alone is a healthy pursuit and Ned puts some newly devised house rules to his significant other. Luckily, Steve Ali is here to put everything into perspective with a sobering account of living in a refugee camp.

Co-created by Deborah Frances-White for The Spontaneity Shop and BBC Radio 4.

Produced by Al Riddell.

Music by Mark Hodge and Omahrose, produced by Nick Sheldon.
