Beat the Burglar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Beat the Burglar is a BBC television programme that uses ex-professional burglar Mike Fraser to break into people's homes with their permission to show how vulnerable they can be. Forensic teams then harvest the evidence for analysis by experts before giving the homeowners a home security makeover.
The ex-professional burgular shows them what a real burgulary would be like while they watch from a camera.
Firstly he shows them how easy it is to enter their homes, then he takes their prized possessions. Later he returns the items and tells them how they can improve security in their homes. At the end of the show their homes security is improved and the ex burgular returns to see whether they have beat the burgular.
The show is currently showing on UKTV and has been previously shown on BBC.
