"Can't Pay? We'll Take it Away!" is another one. Even the title is gleeful with the exclamation mark.
Not only do people have the stress and humiliation of having the bailiffs turn up, they also have a camera shoved in their faces so everyone knows they are in debt. I would assume Ch5 would have to ask them to sign a form first before they could feature them on tv. Unless there is an element of staging or pre-planning I can't see too many people willing to say yes. Maybe Ch5 offer to pay the debt if they are allowed to show them having goods removed. That's broadly how Judge Judy works. Neither plaintiff nor defendant on that show pays what Judge Judy orders them to, the show covers it.
