Series 3 (Shortened Versions): Episode 4



Enforcement agents shut down a filthy takeaway that is infested with mice and investigate a salmonella outbreak that struck down over 50 guests at a wedding after they ate a hog roast which was dangerously undercooked. Officers are also on the trail of fraudsters targeting our bank accounts. We meet a 91-year-old retired fireman who lost nearly £15,000 of his savings when he was cold-called by people he thought were from his bank.
