pennies on the dollar. and to collect on it, they can get very aggressive. when times got tough for jeffrey smithhe turned to payday loans to cover his expenses. >> a knock comes to our door. i open up the door, and it's one of the people from the payday loan companies. a manager is knocking on the door, asking us for money. "i'm sorry. we're going through bankruptcy." >> "no, no. you owe us a debt. you have to pay up." "no, you have to get off my property." "no, no, you have to pay up now." and he wouldn't leave. >> but what if you don't even owe the money? joe hernandez and his wife, well, they were always very careful to pay their bills on time and keep their credit good. but that didn't seem to matter. >> we started receiving phone calls just out of the blue, and they would call and they would ask for somebody with the last name of hernandez, like mine. and it usually was john or joel or jeff or julie or judy. i continually told them that they had the wrong number and to quit calling us. i thought that would end it, but of course it didn't. >> did they call all times of the day? >> we'd get c

the show‘s producers said smith's previous starring role in dr who meant he was paid more than his co—star. the public are being asked for their views on the future of the one—pennyn—cash payments such as contactless and online spending. the consultation will also look at whether 50—pound notes should be kept. let's catch up with the weather with simon king. it's dry and bright for many eastern parts. look at those blue skies in eastbourne. pretty great condition the further west you are. this is a scene in devon. lots of cloud and rain and some fairly strong winds. that rain will continue across western areas into the afternoon and the further east you go there will be some hazy sunshine. that's focusing on the west as they go through to the evening rush hour because we will see some gales around these western coastal areas and that rain persisting in the south—west. some of that rain edging into western wales and gales of the irish sea coasts. rain also likely in the west of scotland. across eastern parts it's going to be pretty warm. temperatures between 12 and 15 degrees. further west, about nine degrees. today will be the warmest day of the week because as t
