It certainly is not legal in the UK, we are obliged to compile an inventory of whatever is in a defaulted unit and sell it for the best achievable price to offset against the outstanding debt so we can give any balance to our debtor
Out of curiosity, are there actual laws dictating this or is it just your contracts?Dapper Dan is also Mr Hill the Dust Yard owner in BBC's '24 hours in the Past'.
Ok its entertainment not grass roots investigative journalism, but SHUK is certainly 'sold' as reality....
As one who grew up with the first real, gritty 'fly-on-the-wall' documentaries I'm wondering is anything on TV real anymore ?
I'll start a list....

Its a good point and I don't think anything is 'real' any more.
I was recently in a respected documentary and was filmed over a number of days for perhaps a screen time of 15 minutes or so.
Just the process of editing that much material in itself makes the end result misleading and even in a factual documentary there is an angle that they want to promote which the editing will be biased towards.
Once you add the ingredient of purely for entertainment into the equation, I think they are all completely staged.

I enjoy this programme, it's a real guilty pleasure of mine - I know it's all faked* but I set my brain in neutral and I accept it for the contrived crap that it is
What does irritate me though is the "it's worth $4000 at least" - on what basis - pure guesswork - they seem to know the value of everything and I'm damned sure they just make it up as they go along? That's just making it up as they go along
* Some very shiny looking padlocks, cars that actually start, batteries that aren't flat, wood that hasn't rotted, etc
