The Nightmare Neighbour Next Door (2014)

Season 1: Episode 3

Barry and Phyllis Roddis were enjoying an idyllic retirement in their quiet Barnsley neighbourhood until new neighbour Barrie Barker moved in next door and started scrapping cars in his driveway. When Mr Roddis led a neighbourhood appeal to stop the noise, he became the target of Mr Barker's anger. A nine-year campaign of intimidation, verbal and physical abuse followed, which had a devastating effect on the pensioners' lives and finally resulted in a prison sentence for Mr Barker. When Maurice Forsyth-Grant's family fell on hard times, they were forced to vacate and finally sell their ancestral home, Ecclesgreig Castle in Scotland.
