What happened on the show
The series 3 record for this Greenwich case is a single line: Ruth Watson travelled there to try to transform the St Alfeges, also known as Number 16. The property is a small period-house bed and breakfast on St Alfeges Passage, the kind of three-room London operation where the margins are thin and the reviews unforgiving. It featured in October 2007, near the end of Watson's tenure, and was judged worth revisiting in the 2008 Revisited special. Because the episode summary does not preserve the specifics of what Watson found or changed, the honest account is confined to that verifiable outline rather than a reconstruction of on-screen drama the record does not support. The tiny operation, tucked on St Alfeges Passage in the SE10 postcode, drew a follow-up in the 2008 Revisited special.
After the cameras left
The Greenwich bed and breakfast is still open and trading. The three-room period house, on St Alfeges Passage in the SE10 postcode, carries active listings across multiple platforms as of 2026, sometimes styled simply 16 St Alfeges. For a tiny London operation of this kind, nearly two decades of continuous trading after a televised inspection is a quietly impressive result, and the picture here is straightforwardly of a small business that took the scrutiny and endured.
