Hopefully Pete will be in it soon.
All the sheriffs seem like good guys too. One day I'm hoping Laurence will turn up in my area with a high court writ. Obviously Kev will be with him. Great pair. |

Yep only 5 episodes this time. Disappointing to say the least (still good to watch though)
also, the debtors now almost always ask the cameras to leave, and whereas early series you used to still get the audio (presumably from a device the sheriffs had on their person) this has also stopped in this series. Maybe was shaky legal grounds to record others on that basis. hope they get their mojo back and find some angrier non-payers for the next series

I suppose they would be on dodgy legal ground if the enforcers used those secret lapel cameras like some of the cop shows use, there's nothing that pisses off a miscreant more than a camerman taking a record of their inglorious comeuppance.
The number of pixelated heads is also an annoyance, it's not up to the confrontation quotient of previous episodes. |

The cameraman must be fed up being asked to leave, I thought people would love to be on t' telly.
The narrator certainly earns his dosh on this show, it's endless. |

This might seem really daft. I know they repeating series 3 this week but I am sure before that they didn't blur their faces as they have on the repeats

Have noticed it on things like traffic cops repeats, if they are a few years old faces are blurred out |

I caught a couple of episodes this week! Good fun to watch. Made me want to be a sheriff!

I'm sorry to have to say that I believe the days of "Sheriffs" are now over.
Having to blur-out peoples faces, the camera always being asked to leave and the fact that they now have to write to the debtor 7 days (or whatever the period is) telling them they'll be coming to see them, have all contributed to this no longer really being a viable show. It's a great pity. The original shows, seen for the first time, were excellent! |

So the law has changed has it? If that's the case then like you say it's going to be a bit pointless even having Sherrifs if they can't catch debtors by surprise! Dodgy businesses must be rejoicing at the news!

But any debtor with any sense has probably seen the series, & will know exactly what to do, i.e the daft guy who left 2 vehicles with the keys in!

This used to be one of my fave programmes, but watching the 1st of the new run this morning...just boring. The last series was similar, less and less 'action' or 'aggro' and more boring cases where the cameras were sent away and nothing much happens.
Think this will be the last series - much as I hate to say it, 'Can't Pay We'll Take It Away' on ch5 is much more fun to watch. |

No sign of Pete again and he has disappeared from the opening sequence which depicts all The Sheriffs

The show is very disappointing.
Can't they wear go pro cameras? 90% the cameraman is asked to leave. Can't pay on channel 5 is miles better. |

What is the BBC playing at with this and last weeks "30 Minute Reversion" shows - is that a way of disguising the facts these seem to be repeats.
