Cancellation
The show was cancelled in November 2005 after one show had been broadcast when the producers discovered that their private investigator, Michael Brown, had been convicted that October of six child sex offences. Brown was in breach of his contract for not telling the producers about this, and Living TV apologised for broadcasting the one episode. Pulling the show cost Living £600,000. Brown also had a previous child sex conviction and a conviction for possessing a knuckleduster. He was jailed that December. The show was re-filmed with another team, and broadcast in April and May 2006.
