Everybody who ordered across the holiday season, y'all got y'all stuff. Simple. The link to all of that down below man, let's get into it man, let's get negative. But let's also have a heart. Stephen Paul. Can't pay well, take it away, let go. Last year, UK landlords spent four and a half billion pounds repairing their properties after problem tenants left. Over the next year, these crippling costs made. That's part of the business. Force one in five landlords out of the property business altogether. What does that say? Let me, the average landlord spends over three thousand per year repairing damages to rental properties. That's part of the calculated expense though, as a landlord. Three thousand for one property, that's you got to repaint, you got to redo the floors, you got to plug up any, you know, any holes in the wall. No, actually in America, all you have to do when the tenant moves out is paint and redo the floors like the carpet and or if it's just clean them real good. Anything else? This is called a security deposit. If y'all don't fix it to my liking, I will go get it fixed and send you a receipt. And the rest of your security deposit that I didn't need to use. So, hey, start to collect the security deposit. Pull bow hill and Steve. The place where I live currently, the security deposit was 3500. Crazy. Norena's not even nowhere near that much, but it's 3500 for the security deposit that they ain't playing around. Our High Court enforcement agents. Together, they have 45 years experience in the industry. No, we're starting off with this. They travel the country, enforcing rits and repossessing properties. I can literally watch this show any time during the day. Any level of tiredness. I'm going to make it through. This is a good show to me. Four seasons. Today, they're in North London to carry out an eviction. Today, we have a real repossession. We're in Seven Sisters. The house was let to Vadoova Mariana, who's been living there with her two children for four months. Okay, okay. But she owes 6,000 pounds in four months. None paid rent to her landlord. She's never paid rent. Moved in and never paid you. Keep going. Down the end. He's parking the bay out somewhere, probably. The landlord's representative is waiting outside the property. His name is Ginger. Really? Yeah. Why? Well, he's got ginger hair. Good morning, sir. Are you standing on something? This is Steve, by the way. I didn't know him. Paul, a joke went over his head. Ginger, you're tall, is what he's saying. This is Ginger. Let me give you a little briefing here. They've been there about four months. Yeah. No deposit. No, nothing. Haven't paid the penny rent. They're nothing but hassle. All the residents here have been bugging me to get them out. They're just paying their neck. There are two little kids there with one mother. See, now going into this situation, I'm on the landlord's side. I understand there's two kids, but you moved in. You didn't pay a deposit. So there is deposits there. You didn't pay a deposit. You haven't paid rent. But also, you don't let nobody move into your property without a deposit if that's what you require. So that's on you. The tenant, the dover, has already received notice of eviction from the county court. But the case has been escalated to the high court and the agents are here today without warning. They know you'll take it. No, they know me. Doesn't work. They know me. Everybody's been here before. I've been here. The police have been here so often. I've gone to sit in the car. Having the landlord's agent there really comes into the same classification as having the landlord there. If he's actually known to the tenant, the whole situation is likely to be turbocharged. Somebody in the window. Not going to lie, when it looks at the door area, it's looking kind of questionable. Morning. Hi. How are you? We're high court enforcement agents. And we have a grip to repossess this property. Report. Pardon? What is this? It's a letter from the High Court of England. Yeah. Saying that you have to lead this property. Today. I don't understand. Pack up your bags. Take everything that belongs to you. What is the wording for the court? Where is the word? Not there. It says there, High Court of Justice. Romanian-born Vadova doesn't seem to understand that she has to leave the house today. Her friend offers advice. This is a little bit of a hold-up, hey. You use for the court? Yes. That's an old friend. That friend has lead you down a path of jail. He says show us something for the court. Yeah, sure, please do. Vadova thinks she has two more weeks before she has to leave. The defendant, this is you. You understand? Yeah. Good. To give the claimant, that's the person who owns the property. Yes. Own the property. Two weeks. Owns the property. Fourth width, that means now. So this means now. No two weeks. Vadova. I'll go ahead and get a translator. I wouldn't even, somebody like me, I would, do you understand English? And I'm not even being, I'm not trying to be offensive. This is real, like, do you understand the English? Because this is, this is worded funny, like I need you to understand what I'm saying right now. Do we need to get a translator? If so, I got you. Give me a moment. You know what I'm saying? Her has two children. To avoid them being homeless, Paul wants her to go straight to the council to apply for emergency housing. She'll get it. How many people here? My family. Okay. What, what nationality are you? No, what nationality? Where do you come from? Romania. Right. Well, the council should help you. I will speak to council for her about nothing. They won't do anything. Believe me, nothing. Trust me, they won't do anything until they get this piece of paper. Okay. Vadova has one hour to pack her essentials and leave. But instead, she wants to talk to ginger, the landlord's representative. Oh man, Vadova wants all the smoke at this time. You have to leave now. Why? Because you're out, man. That's it. Somebody, this lady you come or you come in the office, you give you money, something to make this. No one gave me money. No one gave me that. Give me money? Do you see what I'm talking about? Like, y'all see what I'm talking about? Somebody in the comments is going to take her side. The nerve. You've paid nothing. Get out. See now, I'm on timing now. What you mean? Give me some money. Penny. She told me. No one gave me a penny. She told me yesterday. I'm not going to argue with you. You're not going to argue with me. Oh, okay. She's trying to take it sound like somebody went over there and paid me. I'm not going to argue with you. No one gave me a penny. You're leaving now. Simple. I don't leave. You're leaving now. I don't leave. You're going to leave. You have no choice. Ginger. You leave now. That's it. That's the end of the truck. That's from the high court. That's the end of the line. You have to leave. And now she wants to shut Paul out of the house. Well, that's fine. We'll break it down, Padua. At this moment, I would have called the police. Okay. Stay here. Okay. You have the option to do this. Mia, I don't understand you. Okay. You speak perfectly good English. It's no hundred percent. Listen. Wait. Stop. Listen, please. Yes. You speak perfectly good English. You understand what I'm saying. You either have to leave like this, nicely, and go to the council, or we will ask the police to come along and explain it all to you. She's chosen the latter and caught a police. Often people will hide behind the language barrier. They imply that they don't understand what we're saying. Their body language and attitude and their reactions to what we're saying lead us to believe that they do. Vadoova is still refusing to get herself and her two children ready. I like how Romanian women dress on this show. Like, they just don't know nothing that, like, fashion at all. I like it. Like, just don't care. You see me talk on me that way. I don't care either, Vadoova. You do me? Let's talk about it. You got what's happened? Just kidding. Agents need to start making an inventory of the goods in the house. Upstairs, they make an unexpected. See, I tried to give the benefit of the doubt before I called this a brothel because I heard Romanian. But see, now I'm looking, I've seen multiple mattresses. In discovery. Loads of rooms. Loads of beds. Loads of clothes. Loads of everything except for playing the ring. Each bedroom is filled with stripped-down mattresses. The agents begin to suspect that there may be more people living in the house than just Vadoova and her children. The family home isn't all it appears. The place of the nightmare, electrically. The sockets are smashed off the walls and lights. What started as a routine repossession has turned into an unpredictable situation for the agents. And with Vadoova refusing to leave, Will Paulens... She got a four-iron tattoo. Steve be able to keep this eviction on track. And Steve Penner were in north London to carry out an eviction. The tenant owed £6,000 in unpaid rent. Morning. We're high court enforcement agents. No, we're not doing that. It was house to discovered there was more to the beds. Despite the mysterious... Despite the mysterious circumstances, Paul and Steve must persuade Vadoova to leave the house and go straight to the council with her children for help. We'll give you to quarter past nine. Take them to the council. That's right. Will you go to the council? No, I'm going the street. Listen, if you go to the council, the council should help you. One second, please. I call some friend and go to this home because I don't have one second. Steve's patience finally runs out. He turns up the pressure. The threat of the police suddenly changes Vadoova's mind. Vadoova agrees to... I ain't gonna lie, Paul. Good girl is a little bit wild for you to say. After four months without rent, the landlord's representative, Ginger, is close to getting the house back. This is not what they do. It winds me up. We're losing a thousand. We've got a mortgage to pay, can't do bugger all until they leave. Look at the mess they've left in. Yeah, they told your career, but all up, yeah? But as Vadoova gets ready to leave, Paul spots a movement in a downstairs room. There's about six of them in the back room. What's going on here? They've been using this as a hostel? Suddenly, a crowd of people appear from one of the bedrooms. The factories are going left to their own devices. They'll be back here by dinner time. The men and women appear to be living in the house without the landlord's permission. The agents are worried that they'll return as fast as they have left. No, he none of that. Trust me, I don't trust him. No, he none of that. Trust me, I don't trust him. They need to screw the windows shut or they'll be back. Ginger thinks he knows how so many people ended up living in the house. I reckon they were people coming from wherever they come from, from where they've been, and just renting them every night. A bed or whatever, a paper night or whatever per week. Make a few grids and quick change over. Finally, Vadoova and her friend leave the house. It's not clear where she plans to go. I wonder if she even got kids. The council wasn't high on their list. I've got the rich. She left it. She left all the corn. The eviction is complete. Ginger can now set about renovating the property, ready to be re-legged. Okay, it's all yours. Thank you very much. Been a pleasure. I'll shake it. I wonder what it smelled like inside the property. That'd be my curiosity. Like, they need smell vision. I would love to know how to... Well, not love, but I'm just curious. Who's before you got it? Off of Britain's small companies are owed money in late payments. With estimates totaling as much as £255 billion, the effects of these late payments are crippling small businesses. Leading to closures across the UK. High court enforcement agents, Brian O'Shaughnessy and Alan Hunt, are on their way to New Romney. I don't even feel like I know Alan. Who is Alan? Grand parade. It's hard to see, sir. It's hard to see. They have a high court writ to recover a debt owed by a drainage firm to a supplier. Today, we're looking for £7,008.95. It's just going to be very draining, you know. I can feel it already. Yeah, the higher the number of miles... Free-flow drains is run by the debtor Steve Ross from his home. Now we're doing that. It is, isn't it? I might have some trouble here, mate. I'll have to go in sideways. We've got a good carriage. Oh, lovely. So, have a look. No-one appears to be in, but Alan finds an unlocked door. Ah. Lovely. Here you go. Hello. Hello. Under the terms of the writ, the team have the right to make peaceful entry into the property. Hello. Hello. High court enforcement. High court enforcement. Hello. For me, gaining peaceful entry into a property, I think it's one of the hardest parts of the job for me. I don't know what's going to pop out of the door. I don't know what's going to pop out of anywhere. We're in the right place. His office is here. Hello! Bro, there's nobody in. No. Bro, jump on the phone, 101. After alerting the police that they're inside the property, the agents need to find out where Steve is, so they can settle the debt today. Okay, let's try and get hold of him now. Here, we've got a phone number. You ready? I'm not even gonna lie. This is the creepy part, like... Yes, they have the power to be in your crib without you there, but... Me on the pull-up, I'll be tweaking. Like, bro, what do you want? I wouldn't even be willing to hear it. Hi, Steve. Hi, that's Steve. Hi, Steve. My name's Brian O'Shaughness here. I'm a high court enforcement agent. I'm currently standing in your office. Fine. Basically, the reason for my visit, I'm here with a high court writ against free-flow drains south east limited. Is there any chance you can pop back to get this resolved, Steve? Or can you pay over the phone? It's £7,000 and £8.95. I'm self-employed, draining first. Yeah. You know, I've worked a man's amount before, but, you know... Right. I've got a lot of money. If I had, I would have loved it, just to get it away from my bank, you know? No, I appreciate that. Obviously, what I'm gonna do now then is look at the assets in your garage and in your office here and see what there is to redeem to cover some of the debt. Okay. So, you're in my house? Yeah, I'm in your home, yeah. I just told you that, the first part of the conversation. Sorry, I thought you said you was outside my house. No, I'm inside. I'm with your rabbits and your little brown dog. Well, what are you gonna take? Well, I'll deal with that when I look around, see what there is. Oh, you can't take it. Please let me get home and at least talk to you. Well, I just asked you, I just asked you to do that. I mean, I could possibly pay about £700. No, I need to... Minimum payment's down. You're three and a half grand. Oh, God, no. I just, I... If I had it, I would pay. Look, just, just, just bear with me. I am... Steve, Steve, Steve, Steve. How do you give me an hour? Steve, listen, just listen to me. Yeah? Take a deep breath, chill. I understand it's a shock to you. All right? No, it's a shock, yeah. I'll wait, I'll wait one hour for you, okay? Yes. Just get in the car, take your time, and I'll see you in one hour, okay? Thank you, thank you very much. You're welcome, Steve. All right. While the agents wait for Steve to return, they start to look for business assets they can seize if he can't pay the three and a half thousand pounds Brian has asked for today. There's lots of tools here. Generators go for about 200 quid. But it's a welding machine here. Fast charger, yeah. What have we got in here? Cordless laser, circular saw. Yeah, nice. He got some stuff. Yeah, they're quite expensive, some of these testing kits. Walking into the debtor's houses, you know, you're seeing their lives, you know, everything they've worked for in life is there, that you can get your hands on. And, you know, you've got to be mindful of how people may react. 50 minutes later, Steve arrives home. How you doing? Have a weebby, yeah? Steve, thanks for coming back. Oh, are you all right? How about you? Thank you for coming. No, no, that's cool, listen. I understand you're quite distressed on the phone about it, and that's why I wanted you to take your time being back. I don't know about it. You know, I know the people who I owe the money to. Yeah, you haven't disputed that at all, I mean, that's the thing, yeah. I owe the money. I mean, it's just, things have been hard. You see what they've done? They've now passed it up to the High Court, which is why we're here today. I mean, I would have paid him as much as I could each month. I'm a one-man band, that's all I am. Brian wants to find out more about how the debts came about. So, are they family friends, are they? I mean, I know Peter and Matt, and, you know, they only had to pick up the phone. They went to work for a company I worked for when I came and started on my own, and I used to pass on my work to all the liney work to them. Yeah. You know, we have a pair of really, really nice eyes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the company we was doing for didn't pay me to begin with, and they paid for it in drags, and one thing got another, work in choir, and everything like that, I just couldn't afford to pay them. You know, it's quite common in the building trade where people aren't paying invoices, or people aren't satisfied with work, or people walk off the job, and it has a knock-on effect. You know, if they're not getting paid, how can they pay out? It's clear Steve's company has fallen on hard times, but if he can't make a payment today, and some of his tools and equipment are seized, he risks losing his business altogether. Steve, I don't expect you to have seven grand. The problem I've got now is I need to keep the claimant happy. I need a down payment, or a large payment today, of half the debt, three and a half thousand I need today. I've sprung a month. Right, okay. But I don't know, I mean, obviously. See, I respect that. I'll just give her a ring the minute I get here. Fine, that's fine. Steve calls his mum to ask for help. He wants three and a half. Three and a half, yeah, seven euros, I'm checking hard. It's three and a half thousand. Yeah, well, y'all can just call your mum and ask for it. Twenty-eight, honey. The bank of friends and family is a positive thing for me. It's nice for me to see him making that effort, and that phone call, because he wants to get it resolved or paid. Steve's mum has come up with two and a half thousand pounds. Yeah, okay, I've gone through fine. Okay. Okay, that's good enough, Brian. Come on now. Thank you, bye. But as it's less than half the money owed, that's good enough. Call the office, Brian. Brian needs to set up a payment plan to clear the remaining balance. So if I say 300 quid a month, starting six weeks' time. All right, let me ask, all right. You're 300 quid a month. It will be up to the claimant to decide whether to accept Steve's offer. 3,200 pay today. Pay today, yeah. And 2.50 a month starting in six weeks. 2.50 per month. Yeah, okay. Can you let me know, please? Yeah, yeah, okay. Thank you. If the claimant decides Steve's offer is too low, the agents will have no choice but to remove some of his valuable equipment. At the end of the day, my heart at heart, I know what's wrong and I know what's right and what's wrong. I was in the wrong, it should have been sold, it shouldn't have been paid. What's a good guy? It's a good guy, for real. Five minutes later, Brian hears back from the office. Cheers. Bye. The claimant has accepted Steve's offer. Happy days. Steve, thank you. I'll just need a couple of signatures off you, okay? Shake me hand. Listen, it's nice to meet you. Steve, listen, thank you so much, yeah, for coming back. Don't be sorry. I don't want you to say that to me because we're doing our job and it's difficult. No, but you've come back, but you've come back and I could hear the emotion on your voice. You take care, mate. Bye-bye. Everything will turn out well. Steve's business is safe for now, but if he doesn't stick to the payment plan, the agents will be back. This debtor's crisis is over for now, but in Paul and Steve's next case... Anybody in? ...they meet a woman whose life is turned... No, no, no, no, no, no. Why are you always trying to give up? Across Britain, 4.8 million people receive some form of housing benefit to help pay their rent. But over 66,000 households have had their housing benefit capped since 2013. Some tenants up and down the country now face a rent shortfall, increasing their risk of eviction. Oh my God, 77% of landlords who rent to housing benefit tenants face arrears in the last year. I know how to say the word, but I hear the word in this show all the time, but I can't say it. That's tough. I would rent to housing benefit tenants, but I need the money directly from the office. You feel me? Like, I don't want them to get it, then give it to me. If that's not the case, then no. London. High court enforcement agents. You feel me? Like, I just couldn't. Paul Bohill and Steve Pinner are on their way to carry out an eviction. Well, this is a rate of possession, the defendant Tatiana Celeste. The tenant Tatiana has been living in the house with her children for six years, but she hasn't been paying the full rent. Just pretty standard stuff, really. Probably cut her benefits if she wasn't able to cover the rest. Now she owes £10,000 to her landlord. Why do landlords get the bill get so high? But Paul and Steve are not instructed to collect the unpaid rent. They're here to repossess the house today. I don't want to laugh at nobody's misfortune, but I feel like there's bound to be a level of negativity that we strive for. Let's get into it. We're not going to get in? Is there anybody in? Hello? If there's anybody in there, we're from the High Court. We'll give you 10 minutes to think about it and then we'll break the door in. The property appears to be empty, but Steve is suspicious. There's a key in the door. People are in there. There's a key in the door. It's locked. From the inside, though. I'm going to see if I can find a coat hanger. OK. It's just slowing us down. The nuisance is if they are actually in there and they're locking the doors, this can become quite sparky. Steve tries to dislodge the keys on the other side of the door. Where do I put my mirror? Up, up, up, up, up, up. The keys are gone. Sorry? The keys are gone. Is the door open, though? No. They took the keys out of the door. They've come down sneaking on their hands and knees. There's still no answer. Then the landlord's agent arrives at the property. Hello? Paul? Steve. Steve. Nice to meet you. This appears to be somebody in. OK. Have you got keys? I was told by the landlord to attend with the locksmith. Right. Paul and Steve instruct the locksmith to break in. Wait, just a second. If you stand back, stand back. That's right. Thank you. Hello? Would you like to come downstairs? Or may I come? You know what would be crazy when somebody be, when you're talking to somebody, like put yourself in this situation. You're talking to somebody and they really take you as a joke and then you really do what you said you were going to do. I ain't that crazy? Like why you have to push me to do what I had to say? Like I'm standing on business 100% of the time. So if I say it's going to happen and less distance than the third, like put your pride aside. Because more than likely, you're not going to overtake me in whatever I'm talking about. All right. Come on. No lights. Oh, there is lights. Okay. Hello. Six years. They got a bunch of stuff. Although the key has been taken from the door, nobody seems to be in the house. How'd they do that? Oh, they went through the back door? Where'd I gone to? Come out, sir. What on earth are you doing in there? It went a bit lively, didn't they? Why would you need to shoot out the back door? If somebody's knocking on your door and you have no reason to be worried about anything, why wouldn't you just open the door and even speak to somebody? Whoever was hiding in the house appears to have left in a hurry. Paul turns detective. What I was actually looking through the paperwork for is for the possibility of a mobile telephone number. But then he makes an unexpected discovery. Well, there's a whole load of tellies here. This big and this big. Stolen? The Italian's home is this big. They have a collection of everything, don't they? Laptops. I think that's why they shot out the back door. No, it's a fairly common... They're in their boosters. Boot fair trick is to get electrical equipment and actually physically jet wash it with high pressure water to clean it up to make it look new. Let it dry out for a few days. Doesn't matter whether it works. Cling film it so that it looks even better and then sell it on the boot fair or in a pub or something. Upstairs in the bedroom pulls in for another surprise. So I definitely, whoever walks into this house, like, you're scammers. That's a scam. You're a scammer. We don't like scammers over here. 100% is up. Nice. And we're looking around here. I don't believe it. Don't you own a gabbana? NK. I mean, this is all designer gear. Timberland. They aren't cheap. 150, 200 pound a pair. I'm now looking at 70 pairs of shoes. Steve would like these. Kids shoes don't count. It's just everywhere you look is money. What about your rent? The whole scenario, the setup of the fact that there was designer gear in the wardrobe, the fact there were eight or 10 televisions downstairs, laptops, all sorts of technical equipment there, the fact that it was all in one house, which was a sort of two up and two down. Was a very suspicious circumstance. Decides to call the police. I'm high court enforcement. I'm at a house. We've repossessed the property. There's nobody here. But we concern there's about eight televisions, a load of laptops and other items that lead us to sort of conclusions that are fairly obvious. These are people who haven't paid their rent. Appreciate it. Bye. The agents have been at the property for over an hour. But now Steve is needed on another case. Hey, buddy looking like security. He look like the locksmith. It's a big dude. I'll speak to you later on. Give us a call. Let me know what goes on. I'll be brave. Think brave thoughts. But just as Steve leaves, a car pulls up. Please, yeah. Tatiana's sister gets her on the phone. Hello. Hello. Yes, is that Tatiana? We've repossessed the house here. We're high court enforcement agents. We've repossessed the house. How long will you be? Okay. All right. Okay. While the agents… It don't even matter. Nothing you say is about to charge this attrition. Wait for Tatiana to arrive. Her friends and family start to gather on the street. I ain't gonna lie. They're pretty deep. Tension we're getting here. We don't want anybody turning up, moving large quantities of stuff to the police get here. A situation like this could very easily become hostile. Minutes later… Hello. Are you Tatiana? Yeah. Tatiana finally arrives. Right. I want to know what's the matter. Right. I'm a high court enforcement agent. We've repossessed the house. This has gone through court. It must have been notified. There are rent arrears here, and the landlord has taken the property back. She looked oblivious. She didn't know what's going on. I would be 100% very surprised if she really didn't know what was happening. Don't speak English. She can't express it. Okay. Okay. I don't know anything. I don't know anything about this. I've been into the court. That's it. I've not received the letter to tell me when… There is no letter. That's the letter. We've delivered it today. You have an hour to get your personal belongings together. Mobile phones, identification. Tatiana still doesn't understand why she's being evicted. She wants answers from her letting agent. So she don't know she owed ten bands? What's happened is that housing benefit has been paying low money. Low money. Okay, six, seven hundred pounds. Yes. And every month your money is going in arrears, 300, 600, 900, you know what I'm saying? Until it's got to a stage. But it's gone like this. In arrears that the landlord wanted his property back. Tatiana's housing doesn't cover all the rent. But she claims she's been paying the balance directly to another letting agent who hasn't passed it on to the landlord. She's a chief woman. I pay the money to do it. No, because it's not good. I got my key. I pay the rent every month. I pay the rent. The story that's emerging isn't what Paul expected. Her story is that that agent have not been paying the money to the landlord. Now, if this is the case, that is bogus. Like y'all need to go find her, whoever she's talking about. But let's figure out who she's talking about. Paying 600 pounds a month to that agent for six years. If that is true, she is in fact a victim. Despite her protests, Tatiana's time in the house is now up. It will be up to the police to decide whether to investigate the valuable goods in the house. Bro, don't nobody want this big back TV? That's theirs. They probably sending that to back, like to, you know, where they from, which is hyper-common, so. Tatiana and her children are now homeless. They will have to apply to the council for emergency accommodation for the night. The number of tenants in serious rent arrears is rising. Latest figures show that over 80,000 households are at least two. Just a side note, that was not the negativity that I've been waiting on. Months behind with their rent, an increase of nearly 20% over the last year alone. Brian O'Shaughnessy and Delroy Anglin are in Fulham, South West London. They have a writ to recover a debt of nearly 38,000 pounds owed by a tenant for unpaid rent on a residential property. Let's have a bunch of juices. Park it here. The landlord is now pursuing the tenant, Abdenor Sadawi, for the rent he owes. The agents don't know where Mr. Sadawi currently lives, but they have an address for him at a cafe. We're going to a cafe around the corner here, Cafe Nounu. It's a big debt, 37,986 pounds. A few coffees there, mate, is it? Only for the black. Nah, white coffees better for you. Oh, there it is, there. Is it really? Isn't it? It's nasty. I tried a couple of black coffees like a couple of days ago. I finished it, but it was nasty. Isn't the first time High Court enforcement agents have pursued Mr. Sadawi for payment? But this is Brian and Dell's first visit on the case. Can I speak to the boss man, please? Boss is coming, I lost him, maybe half an hour. Want to call him, let him know we're here? Yeah, I'm calling him, yeah. Thank you. What's your boss's name? Abdenor. Nice to meet you. Abdenor. High Court, High Court. If Abdenor Sadawi owns the business, the writ allows the agents to seize assets from the cafe to offset the debt. Abdenor, I'm here to enforce a High Court writ for 37,986 pounds. 37,9... The amount's so large, you couldn't even fathom what was going on. 186 pounds and 10 pence. 37. You owe money to Jeremy St. Leger-Brown. Well, that's what it said, sir, and we've got a High Court. Hang on. How long will it take you to get here, sir? You're not coming? We're here, sir, to enforce the writ. You need to attend, yeah. It's done. I don't know. While the agents wait to see if Mr. Sadawi turns up, Dell wants to find out more about the debt. What's your name? My name is Munian. Right, you're not named on here. So I can't really... Because of him, the name is my cousin. Because my mother is the sister of him. He's not going to turn up. Cool, then we'll empty out. Mr. Sadawi has refused to pay the debt. Are y'all actually going to empty something now, ever? I've never seen it. I've seen y'all threaten it. I've seen y'all start stacking chairs. I didn't see y'all take a car two once, but, like... So, Brian is already looking at the assets in the cafe. Well, if it costs grand... Well, for Stephanie, we'll take it. Coffee machine is expensive. Simple, isn't it? Yeah. But 10 minutes later, a man arrives at the cafe. Who's that? Is that him? Hello, sir, how are you? No, I'm all right. Thank you for coming. He's nothing to do with you. OK, fine, no problem. What's your name, please? My name is Munian. OK. Munian. Munia? OK, Munia. But you said you were Munia. Munia. Abdenor. Abdenor. Who's Abdenor? Look, so you're Abdenor. No, no, no. I'm Munir. Well, why am I speaking to you, though? Yes. I'm Munian. I'm just working here. OK. The man claims he isn't the debtor, Abdenor Sadawi. Is this Abdenor? I'll tell you what. Let's cut it short. Have you got any idea? Sorry? I don't know. You don't have. The man claiming to be cafe worker Munia Nunu calls his solicitor. He says he can provide documents to prove that he doesn't own the cafe. So it's a bit of a waiting game at the moment to get the documents, I think. That would tell us all we need to know. Dell asks to speak to the solicitor. Hello, sir. I'm a high court enforcement agent. My name is Dell Wright. I'm in possession of a high court writ. Who owns this shop? I don't know. Do you have a copy of the... Why are we talking to them? Please, for this business here. No, no. And can you confirm the identity of the person here? Is it Abdenor Sadawi? That's correct. Thank you very much. Thank you. You got to get on... Whoever you calling and all your people, you got to get on the same page as them, because they just... Loki accidentally... I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. You got to get on the same page as them, because they just... Loki accidentally blew up your whole situation. Now you got to... Now you got to answer them. The man who said he was Mania Nunu appears to be the debtor, Mr. Sadawi, after all. It's interesting. We've now established he is the debtor. The solicitor's done so. So he's lying. How long have you been trading here? He's not... I'm not telling you. I just come to look for him sometime. No. Mr. Sadawi is adamant that he doesn't own the business. It's a... All right. Well, let's do some inventory, Ryan. Let's start collecting stuff, cutting stuff off. Stale, mate. So will Brian and Dell be able to get to the truth and recover the 38,000 pounds they came for? I'm not trying to say nothing, but Abden here, he got like four slices of hair combed over the top. Just let it go, my boy. Y'all tell me to let it go. Tell him. He got four slithers of hair. That's tough. A court enforcement agents, Brian O'Shaughnessy and Delroy Anglin were at a cafe in Fulham, West London with a writ to recover almost 38,000 pounds in unpaid rent. Get a few coffees there, mate. And if they're black. When they arrived, the debtor, Abden or Sadawi, claimed to be someone else. I'm one of them. I'm just working here. Del discovered that the man was Abden or Sadawi after all. Can you confirm the identity of the person here? Is it Abden or Sadawi? That's correct. Now the agents... It's nothing you can say, Abden or Sadawi. That's going to make these agents believe you don't own this property now. You are already lied. Agents must dig deep to uncover the truth. If the business doesn't belong to Mr. Sadawi, they won't be able to seize any assets from the cafe to offset the debt. See a Panini press? They've got to call some money. This cappuccino machine. Not 37 bands, though. This is your cafe, yes? No, it's not my cafe. Cafe, the cafe? Yeah, the cafe is not mine. Whose is the cafe? It's... Is he a relation of yours? No relation. Don't you have your lease? No, no, no, it's nothing my lease. Having heard him lie about his identity, the agents are suspicious. Okay, it's half past three. I need to see the documentation, okay? We don't want to take any further action unless we have to. Just hear me. Well, then we're going to continue. I'm going to take the stuff. I don't want to do that. If you can get that documentation, I'll leave it. Right, we continue. Brian's patience is running out. The shop's now shut, okay? Tell him we're going to remove goods from the shop. He's not forthcoming. He's not really being helpful towards us. I think you'll listen now. Well, Brian flipped that sign from opening the closed. You know he means business. Okay, listen carefully. If you don't provide me with the relevant information I need, you need to pay it or be enforced to call over here. No, no, no. Yes, yes, yes. Let's get Megan in. Yes, yes, yes. Yes, yes, yes. Okay, fine. Can you provide me with the lease agreement, please? Then I will continue with action. We need to sort this out. Yeah? Okay, maybe not then. Sometimes it's good to let them have a little think, right? With Mr. Sadawi outside, Brian tries to get some more information from his nephew, Monia. It's expensive around here. Brian's with Mr. Sadawi outside. Hear me out. Now, ma'am. All right, now. You better go home. I'm trying to be a professional. Made. Brian tries to get some more information from his nephew, Monia. It's expensive around here. It's expensive, isn't it? Exactly. The lease is expensive. Yeah, yeah, business, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Rent expensive too. Yeah, of course, yeah. Yesterday you paid 700. No, is that a week for a week? Week, one week? Yeah. Or business rates? Yeah. Nephew said he paid 700 quid this for his business rates. And why would you pay the business rates if it's not your business? No. To me, it's a simple thing that people trip up on if you wouldn't pay the business rates. That's what I'm trying to tell you. If you're lying to me, y'all got to be on the same page. Y'all got to think about how hard it is to cover up a lie for your entire life. It's hard work. It's for somebody else on a regular basis. So, it's clear to me as far as I'm concerned him and the business are one. I just want to confirm that by seeing the documents. Mr. Sadawi's story is unraveling. Dell searches the cafe for more evidence to link him to the business. This is a copy of an inspection report. Yes. Why is your name on this? No. Nah. That's you. That is you. You're telling me lies, my friend. I'm having to drag you screaming to the truth. I've had to find paperwork to link you with this business to prove that you own it. Okay? Yes, you do. Stop it. Stop it. Brian and Dell now believe they have enough evidence to demonstrate that Mr. Sadawi owns the cafe. It's not quite changed over yet. Dell turns up the pressure. Now we're getting somewhere. Tell us about the money. Are you going to pay this money? Well, I don't know. Tell me how you're going to pay it. So you have no money? No money. No cars? No cars. Nothing. You're only refusing to pay? I don't... Well, it is, aren't you? No. You have no money in your pocket? No. Not one pence? No. Come. With Mr. Sadawi claiming he has no means... I mean, it do be like that sometimes. I ain't... What do I got in my pocket? See what I'm saying? I got to look too hard. Ain't nothing in there. Piece of lit. To pay, seizing goods from the business is the agent's only option. But the value of the assets in the cafe doesn't... I'm going to be real. I don't want none of this. What is this? Come close to clearing the £38,000 debt. I want to collect the money for the claimant. However, in that situation, there's a distinct lack of assets. So, yeah, it can be very frustrating. With payment looking unlikely and with no valuable assets to seize, Brian and Dale have no choice but to leave empty-handed. There's not much more we can do. He's got no intention of paying. We can't do anything else here today. Here's your key. How would you feel if someone robbed you of your money? How'd you feel about that? I'm all right. How would you feel about it? If you rented a place out to someone and they never paid you, how'd you feel? Have a good day. No problem. You're welcome. Bye-bye. Thank you very much. It will now be... Brofield Victoria is lucky. He wanted to smile so bad. The up-to-the-claimant to decide whether to continue to pursue the £38,000 debt. Absolutely. 38 bands? You're gonna... I'm gonna pursue it for a lifetime. It's worth it. With court fees attached, so it's just gonna grow for this man. All right, Steve. This is a good man. Told ya. Wait, Tatiana proved to the police that the goods in that house were from a car boot... Oh, okay. But did y'all find the lady who she allegedly was paying? Next. Tell Olivia like how I'm subscribed, man. I'm gone.
