The Nightmare Neighbour Next Door (2014)

Season 1: Episode 4

The De Roper family thought that they had found their dream home when they moved into a house in Yeovil, Somerset. That dream was rudely shattered by their larger-than-life neighbour Peter Stoodley and his 120 noisy chickens and cockerels running riot in his small backyard. As well as the chickens, there were rats feasting on the rotting eggs and carcases of dead chickens scattered around the yard. The family spent the next two years battling to persuade the authorities to give Mr Stoodley an ASBO banning him from keeping animals.
