There is a street in a suburb of London with rows of shoulder-to-shoulder brick houses just like you'd see on many similar streets. Tiny front yards and fences blocking view of the backs. Driveways and sidewalks and pavement keep it warm in the sun and keep the residents shoveling in the snow. Some houses have newly replaced roofs or windows. Some will need them replaced soon. Some are well past their ideal replacement date. Attempts have been made by most residents to not only keep their homes neat, but also to provide a little "curb appeal", usually with a colorful door or some potted flowers.
One home, however, has an additional feature, added some months before: a knot of reporters and paparazzi with frayed ends of oglers, opportunists, curious and angry.
