Watched it now.
Brilliant.
That first one. What a nasty little man, not intelligent, or helpful in any way. Looked just the sort to put the boot in when he thought he could get away with it. Human filth.
Then there was the stuff with the baby...which perversely I had just witnessed on a programme about monkeys narrated by Attenborough. A gelada had a baby jump on it to deflect an attack by a prospective mate stealer, within the society it is not done to smack someone who is carrying a child. The male didn't pick the kid up, the kid did it to cool tensions.

The motor trade seems to feature heavily in these sorts of show.

I know we need to make cuts, but I do think its unfair to impose them on people retrospectively. It's driving good tenants into arrears and we will end up paying a fortune in bed and breakfast etc.

The cap should only apply to new claims IMO.

Though I do feel sorry for Mr and Mrs Norman, I noticed they could still afford to drink wine - it does make one wonder just how much cutting back they have accorded themselves.

That youngish guy Stuart has my admiration. He dealt really well last week with that Gobby nutter, and did it again this week with the scouser. He keeps his cool so well - I couldn't do it.

Very true, but I wonder why it is that it always seems to be him that people flare up at. He doesn't appear aggressive to me.

Big bloke. Peopleinsecure dipsts love having a pop at a big bloke. Some sort of inferiority thing going on.

To be honest I'd just laugh at the loud shouty bloke, maybe with a bit of 'come down here and say that'. Loud ranters never do anything.

The fat girl was one lazy bas*ard. Two kids living in squalor, and why did she think she needed a dog when she couldn't even look after her family? If she was retraining for a job, she must have known she couldn't pay the rent, so why not move back with her parents or something?

Parasite. I've got no sympathy.

Sounds about right for a social worker...

Especially a would-be social worker! Dog faeces on the kid's bedroom floor! When I see things like that, I start to wonder about mental health.

My brother is an estate agent. He recently valued a house that made that flat look like a palace. The family were medical professionals, income around 150k to 200k per year, 3 teenage kids and 3 dogs. House should have been worth around 1.1 million, but needed complete replastering, reflooring and renovation just to get rid of the stinking layers of dog st, grease and dirt coating the whole interior.

The occupants said it was a bit untidy, but couldn't understand why all the estate agents said it was unsaleable. Very odd.
