You could try phoning and asking for the claim to be looked at again with the added evidence of the recent award, but I would expect your neighbour will still have to attend.

After having witnessed this tripe programme I was hoping for someone to come and take my tv away! Firstly, I found the show to just be one big glorification of test-fuelled self-praising simpletons that only appeals to like-minded thugs with an obvious taste for violence and spite... .and what a perfect job for them to show their 'skills'.
