Beat the Burglar is a BBC television programme that uses ex-professional burglar Mike Fraser to break into people's homes with their permission to show how vulnerable they can be. Forensic teams then harvest the evidence for analysis by experts before giving the homeowners a home security makeover.
The ex-professional burglar shows them what a real burglary would be like while they watch from a camera.
Firstly he shows them how easy it is to enter their homes, then he takes their prized possessions. Later he returns the items and tells them how they can improve security in their homes. At the end of the show their home's security is improved and the ex-burglar returns to see whether they have beaten the burglar.
Beat the Burglar is presented by Dominic Littlewood .
The show is currently showing on UKTV and was previously shown on BBC One in Spring 2005.
