ITV viewers tuning into the latest episode of Our House on Wednesday night were not impressed with the "far fetched" storyline.
The third instalment of the four-part series saw Bram Lawson's situation spiral out of control as he continued to be blackmailed into giving up his house.
Bram (Martin Compston) was involved in a hit-and-run in the first episode and decided to drive off - but didn't realise that he was being watched.
