Series 3: Episode 2
In Oldham, officers are cracking down on rogue landlords housing families in squalid conditions. They also jail a con man who has been posing as a collector for a children’s cancer charity, but is keeping all the money for himself. In east London, officers have set up a bi-weekly online TV programme to name and shame local fly tippers. They post footage of perpetrators online, and when the culprits are identified, they are hit with a £400 fine. As a result, fly tipping has fallen by a third. Following a tip off, a large scale fly tipping gang are busted for illegally dumping 250 tonnes of waste on private land.
