Channel 4 Bailiff documentary pulled at the last minute

[Gerrard Winstanley]

Presumably under an injunction. If anyone knows any more please reply to the list.  Thanks.

Sneaky. Replaced with a repeat about Insurance investigators. Not a lot of 'surfers in' would notice the difference. 


Watch Out! Bailiffs About
Monday 16 March
9:00pm - 10:00pm
Channel 4

I don't suppose anyone ever told a careers adviser that they dreamt of being a bailiff. The repo men in Barney Snow's Cutting Edge film have a disappointed air: they see a lot of lives gone wrong, and when they arrive to repossess a car for a finance company, they knock their victims one notch lower. "That's failure knocking at your door," reflects one debtor here. The film feels topical, but it's also slyly observed. Beefy repo men Danny and Chris, of the wonderfully named Integrity Ethical Ltd, take the film over with their talk of "toe-rags" and their nostalgia for Mrs Thatcher. In one telling scene they declare their love for the flag of St George over a game of darts: the spirit of Al Murray's Pub Landlord is alive and well.
