The Rat Pack

Episode 2

Duration: 30 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One WestLatest broadcast: on BBC One Wales

Documentary series following the work of pest controllers.

Ricky and Jimmy Clark know that you're never more than a few metres from a rat in London, and the two brothers face the challenge of hundreds in West London. A street is infested with them, and terrorised residents turn to the rat-catchers to save the day.

The secret weapon in their quest to rid London of rodents is Charlie, an enthusiastic and highly skilled Jack Russell terrier. He's trained to hunt rats and kill them in an instant, but he may have met his match in Olympia, better known to the boys as Rat City.

Elsewhere, Ricky tackles squirrels with industrial traps, and Jimmy faces his two biggest fears - pigeons and learning to drive. Show less
