Meanwhile, street cleaner Derek keeps smiling through a day of dead animals and worse.

Edinburgh council workers Freddy and Jim clear a tenant's flat overrun with junk and creepy-crawlies, while graveyard workers Stuart and Gareth evict the homeless from the city's tombs. Meanwhile a blood spillage on a council estate means a call-out for mortuary worker George.

Environmental wardens Paul and Hazel search for the dogs responsible for a glut of excrement in Edinburgh. In Princes St Gardens, pest controllers try to keep rats under control.
