BBC One - Defenders: Busting the Bad Guys, Series 3, Episode 6

Officers swoop on an illegal sweatshop and track down a cowboy builder.

Officers swoop on an illegal sweatshop suspected of being a major supplier of counterfeit clothing and track down a cowboy builder who almost destroyed a family’s home.

Officers swoop on an illegal sweatshop in Birmingham suspected of being a major supplier of counterfeit clothing. Inside they discover thousands of garments and banks of manufacturing machinery - it’s one of their biggest finds ever. They are also on the trail of a cowboy builder who all but destroyed a young family’s dream home, ripping off the back of their house and digging up the garden, leaving the property unliveable and the family close to £17,000 out of pocket. In Newcastle, enforcement agents catch up with a criminal fly-tipping gang who are putting profit before public health. Fly tipping costs the city nearly half a million pounds per year to clean up. And a consignment of cheap earrings which could contain dangerously high levels of base metals such as nickel are seized.
