520 _aCA 27 June 1989. Three cases heard together. In all the plaintiffs sought possession on the grounds that the defendants were insecure lodgers. In the first M was occupier of a room but was not granted exclusive possession of any part of the room. It was held that M was a licensee, however CA overruled this on the basis of the HL decision in Antoniades v Villers and concluded that as the agreement was unrealistic the appellant was a tenant.

It was held that Housing Act 1985 did not confer an automatic right of possession on a landlord. In the last case the accommodation comprised a whole house.
