    One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

    Does this show reflect (of the debtors shown), the correct percentage of debtors who are white with British heritage, and non white? Do you ever hear anybody from DCBL say that the amount payable will rise by X amount if they have to pick up a TV and take it outside? No, in all the episodes I've watched they do not. £900 added in one instance just because they 'began' removing items, I guess they are told NOT to warn debtors so to make more money and penalise the debtors. The show would be better if they were not so falsely polite.

    I love this show so much! It's so fun to watch!There are a lot of negative reviews on IMDb for this show because people don't like the concept and think that the people doing the job are scum. I can see where they are coming from, but if you watch the show there are a lot of episodes where the agents show compassion for the person who they are visiting and often go out of their way to work with these people.

    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 have never in my life seen a meaner or more heartless group of individuals as these so-called high court enforcers. The older gentleman are sometimes willing to work with the people but the younger guys are just plain heartless bastard's. If you can watch this without wanting to smack one of these pompous losers in the head then you're way better than I am. Not only do they not lift a finger to make things easier they seem to take delight in making things as difficult as possible. I just hope these guys are down and out and need someone to help them one day and they're treated the exact same way that they treat the people in this show.
