A dad-of-two who was jailed for running burglars off the road is 'blown away' after strangers raise £91,000 for legal fees in just 24 hours

In a video this morning, the couple said: “Thank you all for watching the show last night. We were a little bit worried about the backlash of that programme being aired but I think it’s gone absolutely crazy.

“Massive thank you to Scott for setting up the GoFundMe page, I can’t thank you enough for the help and support. It will help pay off some of our debt, loans and credit cards and hopefully we can replace some of our savings as well.” Speaking after the backlash, Bedfordshire Police tweeted: “People may have seen the return of 24 Hours in Police Custody this evening.

“This episode is an important reminder that people must not take the law into their own hands. Such actions can have enormous consequences.
