Heartland host Gary McCormick visits Fendalton, Christchurch — reputed to be one of the country's more well-to-do suburbs — to see if its posh reputation rings true. Fendalton is one of the oldest residential areas in the Garden City. McCormick takes tea and sandwiches on the lawn with elderly resident (and possessor of some archetypal 'rounded vowels') Bessie Seymour Parker; visits grand homesteads and English country gardens; and meets private school teenagers. McCormick does not shy away from asking the hard questions, with discussions of class and wealth at the forefront of his interviews.
