I just watched it.

They were tracking a PC guy who was ripping people off. He inspected a computer that was purposely set up with a loose graphics card (not connected to the mobo), and he told the woman it had a faulty graphics card, faulty memory and power supply claiming that there must have been a power surge of some sort.

Anyway, the guy ripped her off fair and square, and came out with a few high end components to keep for himself.

So they set up the exact same PC in another property, where he was confronted. He walked away with his back to the camera not saying a word. He got in to his very expensive black BMW and reversed out of the driveway... hitting a concrete bollard on the way out and ripping the bumper off the front of his car!!!

Hah! So now not only is he totally <LOOK MA, I AM SWEARING>, but his car is <LOOK MA, I AM SWEARING> too! That guy must be in tears.

I was gonna watch that! It was on ITV wasn't it.

Didn't it also have the plumber who took bits that didn't need fixing?

Aren't you forgetting "it's not booting past the bios, cos you can hear the fans and stuff". Faulty memory? yea, but he just stole one of teh pieces of ram.

Also Aaron, if you have been watching very close attention, you might have noticed his number plate. "WIIN ME" He must love Millenium Edition so much, you know, more problems to fix and that. :geek:


Ooh, also, did you get a chance to see the one with the guy who thinks hes an electrician and a gas fitter? That was amusing, the actual electrical expert who actually knows what hes on about, was shitting himself cos this cowboy was poking live mains that was on, with a metallic screwdriver, while in a bathtub. What a noob!!!
