Our defenders swoop on an illegal sweatshop suspected of being a major supplier of counterfeit clothing, and they track down a cowboy builder who almost destroyed a family鈥檚 home.

Our defenders swoop on an illegal sweatshop in Birmingham that is suspected of being a major supplier of counterfeit clothing. Inside they discover thousands of garments and banks of manufacturing machinery. It is one of the biggest finds they have ever had. Inside the sweatshop, working conditions fall well short of even the most basic safety standards.

They are also on the trail of a cowboy builder who all but destroyed a young family鈥檚 dream home, ripping off the back of their house and digging up the garden, leaving the property uninhabitable and the family close to 拢17,000 out of pocket.

In Newcastle, they catch up with a criminal fly-tipping gang putting profit before public health. Fly-tipping costs the city nearly half a million pounds per year to clean up.
