Lack of good storyline.

Great Film overall

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

I love this show! I live in the U.S. and am SHOCKED that the "high court" can just show up at your door and put you out IMMEDIATELY! There is nothing similar in the states. Although we do have evictions the courts DO give you a final move-out date. There are no surprises at your door.Also being able to immediately take your possessions to absolve the debt is CRAZY to me! I love the show and have visited the U.K. on one occasion and really enjoyed myself (my husband and I took a 2-week holiday). I had no idea stuff like this was going on. It's mind boggling.

Caught the first 2 seasons of this on Netflix. Most of the other reviewers have it plain WRONG as they're critiquing the job, not the show, to which I'd respond "Don't hate the player, hate the game!".The show follows various different 'high court enforcement officers' in carrying out their daily jobs. Sadly, their job involves repossessing houses, apartments, cars and property from down-on-their- luck members of society, usually with either Sad, Pathetic, Hilarious, or sometimes Violent consequences.The people they meet come from across the wealth spectrum in the UK, poor, middle class, and also wealthy. What they have in common is they didn't pay their bills; full Stop. If they'd paid, they would never have been in the situation, hence the show's title. Most times their predicament is their own fault (not paying rent for 8 months, house sitting in a mansion and then refusing to leave), but occasionally there's a tale that tugs at the heartstrings.What people lose sight of is that there's always a 2nd party being wronged...it's not just the tenant being kicked out that's losing something. Several episodes discussed the landlords, who've often bought the property as a long term investment, like the seniors on a pension who can barely make ends meet as their tenant hasn't paid rent in 6 months and who leaves the apartment in a trashed condition to boot! Is it fair to have a system that doesn't have a recourse for them? No. Hence why this job (and the show) exist.Overall it's a poignant, realistic look at a job that appears both tough and heartless, but plays an INTEGRAL part in keeping the gears of modern society in motion. 7/10.ps. Would rate higher except the editing is crap...typical repetitive techniques of 'what's coming later' and 'what's already happened' really slow many episodes down.

I found this a very good show,unlike one of the other reviewers i am looking at it in a more realistic light. Many people end up in debt, the ideal solution is to obviously come to some sort of arrangement but Most of the people in this show come up with such stupid excuses and say so many stupid lies thinking that they will get away with it,i honestly find the people are dealt with in a very reasonable manner considering they have already done the wrong thing. It amazes me to see some of the stupid reactions that the people show when confronted with the debt collectors,treating them as idiots,of course they are not,and they are going to deal with you in a harder way if you treat them like idiots. I would find it very hard to deal with a job like theirs,my hats off to them. And once again it is a great show.

These guys are the stuff that you want to scrape off your shoe.I just watched an episode of this program were a family were evicted from there home. Among those evicted was "Riley", a 2 year old child who needed round the clock life support just to 'stay alive'! this is the worst television I have ever I have never seen anything as terrible as this. for this dickhead to say 'dont panic, there's nothing to worry about, is unbelievable. I live in Irelans, where this cant happen! Why? Because these guys would get torn to shreds. When people stand up against this bullying then it doesn't happen. YOU ARE SCUM.
