Series 4: Episode 4
Investigators take an estate agent to court for failing to tell buyers their new flat was a fire risk. The £200,000 flat had the same cladding as Grenfell Tower, but the buyers weren’t told until half an hour after the sale was completed. By then, it was too late to pull out.\n\nMeanwhile, a special police unit investigates a cruel new scam targeting the elderly.
