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 captures the remarkable recovery of a man claiming he can barely walk, while a woman who claims to have lost her phone on a drunken night out gets a sobering response from her insurers. A careless cyclist's personal injury claim hits the skids, the Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department catch a teenager selling fake insurance policies to unsuspecting motorists, and an attempt to extend a holiday abroad goes down the pan. In America, a doctor giving chemotherapy to healthy patients is exposed in the country's biggest healthcare fraud. Show less
