On Britain’s streets a battle is raging, over 11 million of us rent, with thousands falling victim to rogue landlords. 2 million of us are private landlords, but many face financial ruin at the hands of bad tenants.

In this episode of NTSL, a Southampton landlord struggles to evict two drug taking squatters, housing officers uncover appalling living conditions in Harrow, a landlord in Port Talbot is pushed to the limit by her rent dodging tenant, and a high court sheriff closes down a suspected subletting scam in Peckham.

This series follows the eviction specialists whose job it is to tackle tenants who can’t, or won’t pay the rent, and local authority housing offices tasked with going after rogue landlords. We also follow the work letting agents dealing with problem tenants. From a weed farm in a three-bedroom Blackburn semi, to drug addicts in a Blackpool bedsit, to 25 migrants squeezed into a suburban London home, Nightmare Tenants Slum Landlords, delves into dark side of Britain’s housing crisis.
