cant pay? we'll take it away on channel 5 (UK) - VSS - May 29th, 2018

this is certainly one of the most engaging tv shows in a while. i watch this series on youtube. what is this you might ask? well, as defined by wikipedia:

Quote:Can't Pay? We'll Take It Away! is a factual/reality documentary series on Channel 5. It follows the work of High Court enforcement officers(previously known as sheriff's officers) as they execute High Court writs across England and Wales, on those who have failed to make repayments on a debt or refuse to vacate a property. The series was first broadcast on 24 February 2014, featuring HCEA's of High Court Solutions. Five series of the programme have been broadcast to date.

As of 29 March 2018, the first three series have been made available on Netflix in the US and Canada. The first two series are available on Netflix UK.

Yeah Police interceptors uk and Road Wars are good ones too. Tongue I've seen the on benefits one but I don't care for it too much. I grew up around the "council estates" and I've seen enough of it. Tongue

its sad to see so many down and out families who cant afford the basics "on benefits" and "nightmare tenants and slum landlords" series. but when the story shows those families starting new life with hope and or new job is good feeling. over 10 million people in uk are probaley in debt now, more or less.

That's better than the US. I honestly think there's more than half of the country in debt.

if my calculations are correct the uk debt total now is at £1.78 trillion...compare that with U.S. total of over $19.19 trillion OUCH

The United States is insolvent. It's only a matter of time before the Empire crumbles.
