Claimed and Shamed

Series 8

Episode 4

Duration: 45 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One HDLatest broadcast: on BBC One Wales

Claimed and Shamed is back for its eighth series, exposing even more insurance fraudsters lying on the phone or caught out on camera. The series highlights the extraordinary and often ridiculous lengths some people go to in order to try and receive a bumper payout.

Secret filming reveals a woman claiming she's too injured to work is as fit as an insurance fiddler, a doctor fakes a family member's death to avoid paying for replacement flights, and a professional fighter's bid for compensation is knocked back. The Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department catch up with the owner of a courier company who sent his unsuspecting delivery drivers out on UK roads without insurance in an effort to save money, while compensation is off the menu for a man caught throwing himself down some restaurant stairs in an outrageous personal injury stunt, and a traveller's claim for a helicopter rescue that never happened fails to get off the ground.
