    Source excerpt

    • In a case filed at the High Court, she is now suing for invasion of privacy by 'misuse of her private information', complaining that her distress was broadcast to 'many millions' of viewers and demanding up to £100,000 compensation.
    • But all three companies deny doing anything wrong and say Ms Lowe had no 'expectation of privacy.'
    • Her case has been brought against Channel 5 Broadcasting Ltd, Brinkworth Films Ltd, who make and produce the series, and debt recovery firm Direct Collection Bailiffs Ltd, whose officers entered her home alongside the three-man film crew in February 2016.
