This is the shocking moment a group of travellers threaten a team of bailiffs during a tense, five-hour eviction stand-off. The bailiffs remain calm and composed while the men, one of whom is carrying a wooden bat, try to intimidate them by throwing insults and threats. In a heated exchange, one traveller calls the bailiff a "monkey in a suit", telling him he's going nowhere and daring him to touch his caravan. The traveller, who is staying illegally on the land, thrusts his forehead on the bailiff's head before telling him to "get the f**k out of here". The dramatic scenes were filmed in Taunton, Somerset, during the summer by Able Investigations, a Bristol-based enforcement firm which specialises in evicting travellers and squatters. Steve Wood, 56, who founded the company 20 years ago, released the video to illustrate the conditions bailiffs find themselves in on a day-to-day basis.
