They die."
"Inconsiderate bastards."
All over London public houses become private flats. Tomorrow The Anchor closes for good. It's the end of an era, but Kenny and the gang are going out with a bang.

As the front doors are locked and the bar is drunk dry, there's a lot more to lose than just a pub.
Anna Jordan's play We Anchor in Hope was premiered at The Bunker, London, in September 2019.
