The return of the award-winning Belgian thriller Chloe Muller has just returned to the Federal Police when she is approached by the parents of a young girl named Jasmine who disappeared two years ago. Chloe is their last hope. She pieces the clues together only to realise that the disappearance is linked to her sister Jessica. She has to find her and knows the only way is with the help of convicted child murderer Guy Beranger.

Beranger, still confined in the custody of the local monks, trades his assistance for more freedom from the abbey. The trail leads to the Toy Maker, a charismatic man who is keeping a group of girls captive on a farm allegedly to preserve their purity. Amongst them Jessica, who hadn’t previously questioned her situation, realises the truth and befriends Jasmine to try to protect her from the Toy Maker’s brutality.

As Chloe’s quest brings her closer than ever to finding her sister, she needs to confront her past and maybe her future as her relationship to young monk Lucas moves into unknown territory.

Shamed

After rebellion comes resistance…

A tense psychological thriller

It’s 1922. Dublin Castle is in a permanent state of lockdown and the rural communities are caught in the crossfire of the Black and Tans and Flying Columns, brutalized by both sides. It is a time of high tension, fear and anxiety, rife with double-agents and unreliable narrators. It’s a world of contrast too; the rooftops, cellars and rat-runs; the warm and opulent receptions of the Butler’s household; the mean Dublin tenements where children are left to fend for themselves.

40 year old Caroline lives an ideal life with a beautiful house, a loving husband and an 11 year old son. A modern and dynamic woman, she works in a surgery treating mostly female and upper class patients.

In this timely single drama a 27 year old woman exacts revenge for her teenage self

Temptation Island

The ultimate test of faithfulness Take four couples committed to each other but at the crossroads in their relationships and send them on the most amazing vacation in paradise, separated from their partner. Although they are apart, they won’t be alone and will spend their days, and nights, in the company of attractive singles, all of them looking for love.

For each of the couples it is now time to face their doubts and answer the question “am I really with The One or is there someone better out there for me?”

In this perfect setting, life is filled with parties, romantic escapades and truthful conversations. In their search of clarity will they play seduction games and ultimately give in to temptation?

At night the host invites each group to a bonfire where they’ll be shown on video exactly what their partners have been up to. For some it’s cause for relief; for others suspicion, anger or immediate revenge.

After the ultimate test – a 24 hour dream date with their favourite single – the couples are reunited.

It’s time for emotional declarations, bitter recriminations, and the ultimate question: will they go home together – or go their separate ways?

“What was Pope Francis’ side job as a student? Was he a ventriloquist? A bouncer? A stripper? Or a tattoo artist?”

Who knows that?! And who doesn’t want to find out?

But with every wrong answer they lose part of their money to the crowd’s kitty. In the final, the tables are turned and now the 100 audience members have to answer 5 equally astonishing questions.

The show where celebrities reveal their secrets for money In this game show celebrities win money for disclosing personal secrets. Guests must answer 10 provocative questions on real life events covering topics such as their career, love, divorce, children, parents and health.

For most of them the show is a dramatic opportunity to confess their secrets. But not many will dare to answer the most difficult final question – a truthful answer will be rewarded with a massive cash prize. It is hard to surprise the host who keeps a file on every celebrity and carefully prepares questions for each and every guest. To get to the truth the host invites witnesses to confirm facts right in front of the audience, never missing an opportunity to uncover anything from gastronomic predilections to personal tragedies to youthful indiscretions.

Undressed Can rapid intimacy lead to love?

This hands-on social experiment format sees two complete strangers meet for the very first time, and undress each other in a bedroom. With just 30 minutes to get to know each other, there’s no time to lose.

The couple are given instructions and questions to encourage physical and emotional interaction. Within moments, they’re down to their underwear.

Meanwhile, we get their profiles, with all the juicy details of their personal histories, and directions to encourage the interaction between the couple. What happens when they hug for 30 seconds?

Or gaze into each other’s eyes?

Based on a series of scientific tests that look at accelerating the process of falling in love through heightened intimacy, and bodily contact, Undressed puts the theory into practice. After 20 minutes together, each couple faces the kiss test. Will embarrassment overcome them? Will they click or even fall in love?

At the end, it’s decision time. Will they stay or will they go?

Obese people go on a journey to heal their mind, body and soul This programme follows the journey of eight obese people over three months as they discover the barriers preventing them from optimum health in mind, body and soul.

In each episode, one participant seeks to understand and overcome their negative coping behaviours with the encouragement and insight

of Paralympian and athlete experts who have triumphed over their own adversity and learned that a positive mindset is the key to overcoming barriers. At the end each participant tackles a physical objective that reveals how their life and attitude have progressed over the course of their journey to health.

Five people suffering from type 2 diabetes check in to the Clinic, the country’s first diabetes reversal unit.

These brave patients commit to a drastic treatment based on an ultra-low calorie diet, that could reverse the condition in just eight short weeks. The format follows them living together at the Clinic, and struggling to keep up with the treatment at home.

It also focuses on prevention with celebrities at risk of diabetes checking in to learn how they can avoid developing the condition altogether.

Selection for Britain’s SAS has never been filmed but this format will take you closer to it than ever before. An elite group of ex-Special Forces soldiers put a group of physically fit civilians through an extraordinary series of physical and psychological tests, each from the real selection process.

Physical fitness is just the start – the true test is one of character. “Would I want this man alongside me in a war zone?” is the Special Forces instructors’ all-important question.

The recruits are cut off from the outside world to eat, sleep and train together. Over eight days they are subjected to intense psychological profiling, sleep deprivation, endurance tests and interrogation. But as the recruits’ defences are stripped away, so too are our preconceptions about the qualities needed to be a Special Forces soldier. They’re not interested in the alpha males or females – the fastest, first or strongest – they’re interested in the quiet, strong characters made of the right stuff.

Most will reach breaking point and withdraw, but which recruits will be among the few who make it to the end?

Psychic Challenge The supernatural ratings hit A major primetime success across the world, this national search for clairvoyant talent is essential viewing for believers and sceptics alike. From an initial casting of thousands, Psychic Challenge identifies 10 people with a substantive claim to possessing psychic abilities. These magnetic mediums are then set up to three tasks per show to prove they have real powers. Each paranormal challenge is designed to probe our psychics’ abilities as objectively as possible – from describing events they could not possibly know about, to finding a man buried within a huge search area. A panel made up of sceptics and believers mark each performance. For the fakers, there’s nowhere to hide – the psychic receiving the fewest votes is eliminated. This is compelling viewing, whether you believe or not.

A procedural breakthrough now allows doctors to reanimate organs, medicate them and keep them alive outside the body, keeping the deterioration process at bay whilst they are transported to the recipient patient. This not only allows organs to be sourced from much further afield, it also means doctors have much more time to assess

whether an organ’s functions are working properly.

They live on a diet of just 800 calories per day for four weeks in order to see if they can ‘fast themselves better’ as they attempt to shed more than two stones (15kg). While all the participants have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, this diet isn’t suitable for everyone and must not be undertaken by those on insulin and with certain other conditions, while medical supervision is necessary. The patients enter the clinic for the initial four weeks of their diet, facing a host of tough challenges on the way as their ultra low-calorie diet kicks in.

Living With Tourette’s A brand new second season following the lives of severe Tourette’s sufferers in New Zealand

My F*ing Tourette’s Family The challenging life of a family who have two children with Tourette’s Syndrome

With remarkable access and a mission to reveal what it’s really like to live with Tourette’s, this series features delightfully outrageous characters of all ages. For most of those attending it’s the first time they’ve met anyone else with this widely misunderstood condition. Many have spent their lives hiding from the world.

Hayley and Rich Davies-Monk have two young sons, Spencer aged 13, and Lewis aged 9, both of whom suffer from Tourette’s Syndrome, a neurological disorder, which is expressed in uncontrollable random physical and verbal ‘tics’. These tics often break societal taboos around race, sex and class. Not surprisingly, the family have kept to themselves for many years to avoid public embarrassment and hostility.

Showing just how debilitating this incurable genetic condition can be – the living hell of punishment and ostracism within families, schools and communities – this bold programme celebrates Tourette’s sufferers confident enough to embrace the inevitable humour.

In this film the parents decide for the first time since the diagnosis that their kids deserve the same childhood as any other. From meals out, to their first trip abroad, we follow their first steps into the world, which prove to be both extremely challenging and rewarding.

This thought-provoking film reveals Alex’s shocking testimony and meets his family and friends who share their stories as they watched him slowly fall under her control, powerless to stop it and unaware of how bad it would get. Police described Alex’s case as one of the most extreme cases of domestic violence they had ever dealt with.

Jordan was sentenced to seven and a half years in prison becoming the first female in the UK to be convicted of coercive and controlling behaviour. By sharing his story, Alex hopes to challenge assumptions about violence and masculinity in relationships, and to empower victims of domestic violence to come forward.

The Man Who Used HIV As A Weapon The chilling story of Britain’s first serial HIV infector This powerful documentary tells the intimate and shocking accounts of five men who were abused by Daryll Rowe – the first ever person in the UK to be convicted of deliberately infecting others with HIV. The men in this film have waived their anonymity, breaking their silence to speak publicly for the first time. Some have never even told their families before.

These multiple perspectives build a gripping account of how, over 18 months, Daryll Rowe set out on a dangerous, nationwide campaign to trick men into having unprotected sex with him. This film hears first-hand how he would lie about his HIV status, sabotage condoms and later send abusive text messages taunting them with the fact they are now infected with HIV.

Inside The Mind Of A Serial Killer What made them the killers they became?

Key moments can be traced which reveal when a serial killer began his or her murderous journey; from sinister childhood experiences, adult knock-backs, detectable mental frailty to narcissism and an absence of empathy, this series looks at the triggers that kick-start their psychopathic behaviour.

By forensically researching the lives of those killers who can’t stop killing, the programme reveals why they do what they do and how we could have spotted them – if only we knew the signs. Experts come together with the aid of CCTV footage to reveal exactly what the telltale signs are and analyse the chilling behaviour of the killers. Serial killers look, act and sound like people we all know. With dramatic reconstructions and interviews with those intimately involved in the story, this series brings science to true crime.

The 28 year old office clerk was shot dead by police on a motorway slip road on a cold and wet evening in 2017.

Celebrated by his family as a loving son and beloved father, his death led to protests on the streets of West Yorkshire and in the wake of the Black Lives Matter movement a ‘Justice 4 Yassar’ campaign was born.

But just days later a national newspaper reported that Yassar was a “major drugs baron who laundered the profits from his drugs empire through his sale of high-performance cars”.

Now in this very personal authored film, Mobeen attempts to find out where the truth really lies in a journey that forces him to question his own identity, his town, his community and beyond.

The Importance Of Being Oscar A unique look at the life and times of Irish poet and playwright Oscar Wilde

Looking For Rembrandt An intimate portrait of legendary Dutch painter Rembrandt To mark the 350th anniversary of his death, this enlightening series unravels two mysteries about the great painter. Firstly, how did an incendiary talent like Rembrandt, in his youth the darling of the Dutch art world and high society, end up in a pauper’s grave?

How could an artist who once would have been considered rich from the income he received from his art students come to such an ignominious end?

Oscar’s status as an icon of gay rights has coloured the way in which he is represented in film and TV. His trial and persecution for homosexual crimes became and remains the prevailing lens through which many look at Wilde. This film depicts a different Wilde, tracing his career and his reputation as it was perceived in his own time.

And then there is the question of his afterlife. Today, Rembrandt is considered one of the most famous artists in European history. In 2015, two of his portraits sold for €160 million. Why was his work so often misunderstood in his own lifetime? And why is his work so highly prized today? What have we found in his pictures in the last 350 years that many of Rembrandt’s contemporaries simply couldn’t see?

Matchlight for BBC Four 3 x 60’

Using dramatic reconstruction and interviews with the likes of Stephen Fry, this film looks at Oscar as an individualist, a campaigner for women’s rights, a celebrity, and above all as a writer – not as the convicted sodomite, nor the queer writer. By detaching him from the gay identity he has been given, this documentary reassesses his work anew, reconnecting with the originality and even genius that his own audience spotted, before they knew about his secret life.

Arab Renaissance Reveals a cultural phenomenon that is changing the landscape of the art world In November 2017 the world held its breath when a historic painting came up for auction. Leonardo Da Vinci only ever completed 15 paintings and now one was on sale – The Salvator Mundi. But who could possibly buy it? The world soon knew the answer. The Louvre bought it. But not the Louvre in France – the one that had just opened in Abu Dhabi for an eye-watering $400 million.

In this programme, art historian and Dubai resident Rose Balston looks at a cultural phenomenon that is changing the shape of the art world. The Gulf States are on a cultural spending spree as they invest in world class art and architecture, launch new international galleries and fill them with historic works.

The story of world renowned artist Christo’s large scale artwork in London’s Hyde Park

Film celebrating the 40th anniversary of the blockbuster dance movie

Last summer, on the Serpentine in Hyde Park, Christo created his first public work of art in the UK. Inspired by ancient Mesopotamian tombs, the ‘Mastaba’ is constructed from 7506 painted oil barrels and weighs 600 tonnes. It is the latest work in a career spanning half a century and stretching across the world. His works to date include surrounding eleven islands off the Florida coast with pink polypropylene, to wrapping Berlin’s Reichstag and the Pont-Neuf in Paris.

John Travolta, Barry Gibb and other members of the cast and crew give gripping accounts of supreme success against a backdrop of setbacks and unexpected twists and turns.

This programme charts the creation of the Mastaba, from the first barrels being put on the water to its final unveiling and uses this latest project as an opportunity to paint a moving portrait of Christo, in his own words.

This film is a fascinating look back on a life spent making provocative works of art with his wife and partner Jeanne-Claude.

Undressed Can rapid intimacy lead to love?

In each episode two strangers must undress each other before getting to know one another for the next 30 minutes. They are tasked with answering questions and performing simple challenges – all designed to test whether or not romance can blossom. At the end of the allotted time, each partner must decide if he or she wants to continue the fledgling relationship or say goodbye.

Family Or Fiancé?

Parents eagerly await the big day when their son or daughter walks down the aisle with the love of their life.

But, families and friends can stand in the way of marriage when they disapprove of the suitor. It’s a problem as old as time, yet, most adult children are still desperate for their parents’ approval of their potential spouse.

The stakes are high in this episodic social experiment, as newly engaged couples bring their families together to try and change the way they feel about their partners and unions. All of them agree to spend three days under the same roof. Couples receive the guidance of a relationship

In each zone a team of excitable characters choose who will tackle a variety of Physical, Mystery, Mental and Skill games in a bid to win elusive crystals worth five seconds in the iconic show finale – the legendary Crystal Dome.

Survivor Australia challenges the spirit of 24 people over 50 gruelling days, this time bearing witness to an age old battle – Champions vs Contenders.

Marooned on an uninhabited tropical island in Fiji, with little more than the clothes on their backs, they must fend for themselves, catch their own food, build their own shelter and order their own society.

The contestants compete in extreme challenges for rewards and immunity from elimination. Alliances are made – and broken – while every episode climaxes with the tense drama of the Tribal Council. The competitors are progressively eliminated from the game; until only one remains and is awarded the grand prize of $500,000 and the title of Australian Survivor.
