In the heart of Bristol lies a small city garden – just ten metres across – yet it is alive with more wildlife drama than its owner, artist and sculptor Lou, ever imagined. Surrounded by streets and traffic, her small oasis has become a refuge for wild creatures. Through winter and early spring, a young male fox treats Lou’s garden as the hub of his hundred-garden territory. Bolder than his rural cousins, he raids bird feeders, patrols bins and bristles at rival males when the cry of a vixen echoes across the neighbourhood. With as many as 50 foxes per square mile, competition is fierce. By day, a very different struggle plays out. A young blue tit, driven to the city by hunger, battles aggressive goldfinches, wily pigeons and the neighbourhood cat, Mr Fluffy, for a place at Lou’s feeder. As the city warms, another creature stirs. A female hedgehog wakes from hibernation and begins her nocturnal search for a mate. Lou and her neighbours have created a hedgehog highway linking 16 gardens, giving her a lifeline. She travels far, dodging pets and cars, before finally finding not one but several eager suitors. For hedgehogs, multiple fathers in a single litter is a clever evolutionary strategy. Lou’s pond becomes the stage for another miniature epic. A male frog must act fast before it fills with rivals. Soon it churns with a frenzy of mating. Dragonfly larvae patrol the depths, and only a tiny fraction of tadpoles ever become froglets. But those that do will repay the garden by keeping slugs in check. Raising a family in the city is never simple. The blue tit finds a nest box put up by Lou, but he and his mate struggle to keep their ten chicks alive. With insects in steep decline, they forage desperately. One chick survives long enough to face its greatest hazard: its first flight, straight onto Mr Fluffy’s turf. A bell on the cat’s collar gives the youngster just enough warning to escape. Beneath a neighbour’s shed, the fox’s mate has been raising four cubs. As the youngsters grow bolder, they venture out into the neighbourhood. From froglets climbing makeshift staircases to bees and spiders colonising sun-warmed walls, Lou’s small plot is a micro-wilderness. Together with neighbouring gardens, it forms a green network. Gardens make up a third of our city space, and across the country they are larger than all of Britain’s national nature reserves combined. For the hedgehog mother, the reward is great: four healthy hoglets exploring the world for the first time. It turns out that this city garden offers many animals a lifeline – a sanctuary in the heart of Bristol.

Alistair works to stabilise his patient Paul’s multiple injuries and comfort the patient who is screaming in pain, whilst he waits for an ambulance crew to back him up. Once the crew arrive, they help to transport Paul from the ground to the ambulance. As they travel to the closest major trauma centre, Alistair gets to know Paul, discovering that he is a recovering addict and is inspired to hear about how he has turned his life around. The clinicians on the critical care desk listen in to the most serious of calls in order to decide if they require a specialist paramedic. As the shift begins, a call from a worried mother who says they have found their child not breathing is prioritised. Specialist paramedic Alistair is immediately dispatched to support a crew just arriving on scene. As Alistair travels on blue lights and sirens, control receive a welcome update that the child is not as poorly as first imagined, initiating a stand down for critical care. The team’s relief is palpable as they reflect on the situation being 'every parent’s worst nightmare'. In control today, it is married couple Katie and Stav who are responsible for 60 ambulances across West Yorkshire, including Wakefield crewmates Isbah and Nando and Castleford crew, Jeff and Eddie. The Castleford crew are dispatched to their first patient, a 51-year-old dialysis patient with suspected renal failure. After completing an ECG, the crew fear the patient could go into cardiac arrest so is in need of urgent treatment at hospital. After handing the patient over to hospital staff, Jeff becomes overwhelmed. He confides to Eddie how much the job has triggered him, sharing that he lost his father to renal failure during COVID. In Garforth, crewmates Isbah and Nando are sent to care for an 83-year-old patient at a doctor’s surgery, struggling with light-headedness and a high pulse rate of 160bpm. While they assess the patient, they learn she suffers from dementia and is solely cared for by her husband of 27 years. As the day shift draws to a close, Jeff and Eddie are attending their final patient of the shift; a male patient with difficulty in breathing. Despite advice from the crew, the patient declines a trip to hospital and instead, the crew arrange for a doctor’s prescription to help alleviate his symptoms – which fortunately is swiftly collected by his friend travelling on her mobility scooter. As a new 12-hour shift begins, Jeff and Eddie are dispatched to a patient who has fallen with an injury to her hip. The crew arrive to find the female patient outside her home complaining of a severe pain to her hip. The patient explains she was recently in a car accident and suffered multiple fractures and she’s fearful this could be a setback in her long journey to recovery. Meanwhile in Wakefield, Isbah and Nando are dispatched to the town hall for a 75-year-old female who has collapsed and is supported on scene by a worried friend. As they travel to hospital the patient talks of her battle with grief and anxiety, leading Isbah to share stories of her personal traumas which she experienced in her 20s. As his shift draws to a close, Alistair is dispatched to help 62-year-old Jon, a terminally ill cancer patient who is nearing the end of his life. Arriving on scene, Alistair finds John gravely unwell and delicately supports his worried family as they come to terms with the reality of their dad’s prognosis. Determined to help John, Alistair is focused on making John as comfortable as possible as he rings the local hospice and asks for them to admit him. The family are grateful for Alistair’s support in a difficult time. This episode explores how illness and injury can impact and shape the lives of not only patients, but also those working on the front line. We see crews confronted with stories which parallel their own, and witness how they draw on their personal experiences to bring empathy, reassurance, and hope to others navigating their own pain.

History in the making; the inside story of the Artemis II mission around the moon and back. Four astronauts - Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen - have just completed a ten-day mission going deeper into space than anyone has gone before. They are the first humans to circumnavigate the moon since 1972. For the last three and a half years, this Horizon special has had privileged access inside NASA to chronicle their mission. We hear from astronauts, engineers, technicians and mission directors - exploring what it takes to mount a moonshot in the 21st century - with further insights from some of the biggest names in space science, including Dame Dr Maggie Aderin and British astronaut Tim Peake. The ultimate goal for Artemis is to establish a permanent presence on the lunar surface, where astronauts can live and work for weeks at a time. It’s hugely ambitious, fraught with danger and very expensive – so far, the programme has cost in excess of $90 billion. We follow as engineers grapple with reusing existing rocket technology and adapting a faulty heatshield design - any error could have catastrophic consequences for the astronauts on board. All the while, China’s National Space Administration is heading for the same lunar real estate being targeted by NASA; the starter pistol has been fired on a new space race. When the Artemis II rocket and capsule are ready, they roll out from the Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Centre in Florida. After two delays due to fuel leaks, a launch date is set – 1 April 2026. For the crew, a three-year wait is over. Time for lift-off. The launch is spectacular – 2.2 million kilograms of fuel are required to propel the rocket into Low Earth Orbit. From there, the spacecraft performs a series of engine burns, as the astronauts acclimatise to life in deep space, where they are exposed to the full effects of cosmic radiation beyond the protection of Earth’s magnetosphere. On day six, they arrive at the moon – in time to witness a unique solar eclipse and carry out hours of lunar observation. In the process, they name a crater after Reid Wiseman’s late wife, Carroll, who died of cancer in 2020 – it is a moment of high emotion for the crew. When the lunar fly-by is over, Artemis II starts its return trip to Earth – arriving back at 32 times the speed of sound. It is a critical test of the heatshield that caused so much concern on Artemis I. How will hold up to the intense heat and stress of re-entry? And finally - with splashdown - the focus switches to future Artemis missions, when astronauts will land on the moon and start building a base on the lunar surface. Truly, this is the dawn of a new age of space exploration.

The 30-year-old resident is arrested and taken into custody.

Stacey and the gang travel to Yorkshire to meet the Mann-Monro family, a blended household of six navigating life under one very crowded roof. Mum of three Mary met stepdad Stuart ten years ago, but after almost a decade of living together, and with a fourth child, their home is bursting at the seams. Eldest daughter Milly is back and forth to uni, twins Henry and Gregor have busy lives – with Henry taking GCSEs and Gregor requiring full-time care at home – and youngest daughter Rosie has lots of toys taking up vital space. Stacey challenges them to sort their lives out in just seven days by letting go of half their belongings, paving the way for a calmer, more functional space. Every possession is boxed up and removed, revealing the true potential of their home. The Mann-Monro family’s life is laid out before them in a vast warehouse. Among the mountains of belongings are precious items belonging to Mary’s late husband – things she packed away years ago but has never fully confronted. Teenagers Milly and Henry look through their dad’s old gadgets and keepsakes, and learn more about him through what is an emotional but rewarding process. For Mary, sorting through possessions she kept from the period when Gregor became disabled, following an illness, is particularly tough. She reflects on how, as a mum of four, she tried to stay strong for all the children and had to bottle her emotions in order to keep moving forward. Revisiting those memories, with Stacey gently supporting her, helps Mary finally process what her family went through and appreciate how far they have come. Meanwhile, back at the house, carpenter Rob takes on two ambitious builds: an amazing new music room and a teenage den that becomes a gentle reminder of their late dad. Rob incorporates the old projector and speakers he once owned, giving the children a comforting, modernised space where his presence is felt without overwhelming the room. With the deadline looming, Dilly works her organisational magic, while Iwan delivers a top-to-bottom clean. Finally, the team bring the carefully streamlined belongings back into the home, transforming chaos into calm and creating a space that truly works for all six members of the family. Will this makeover help the Mann-Monros move forward together and create the blended home they have always dreamed of?

True crime documentary series that reveals how expert witnesses helped solve some of the UK's most complex major crime cases. This programme travels to Sussex to investigate the high-profile and utterly devastating case of eight-year-old Sarah Payne. On an idyllic summer's evening, she was abducted by someone in a white van while playing with her siblings. The local community joined police officers to scour the fields and woods around where the little girl went missing, all hoping for a miracle. Sixteen days later, her body was found buried in woodland, and police launched the hunt for her killer. A forensic ecologist, Professor Patricia Wiltshire, is tasked with the key job of linking the site of the shallow grave to the suspect. And by analysing pollen on some of his belongings, she is able to place him at the site where Sarah’s body was found. The man who snatched Sarah’s life away was convicted of her murder and jailed for life. With revealing interviews from Professor Wiltshire and investigating officer Martin Underhill. In the summer of 2004 in Kingston upon Thames, a mother received a distressed message from her son Paul Dalton. Concerned about his welfare, she went to his house – which he shared with his wife and daughter – and made the horrific discovery of her daughter-in-law Tae Hui’s dismembered body in a chest freezer. Police immediately treated the home as a murder scene, but because the house had been thoroughly cleaned and stripped of furniture, finding clues proved challenging. They enlisted the help of blood spatter analyst Jo Millington in the hope that she could reveal the truth behind the shocking crime. The expert witness uncovered evidence that helped convict the victim’s husband of her murder.

BBC One’s much-loved, BAFTA-winning series Race Across the World is back on BBC One and BBC iPlayer as five teams set out on the journey of a lifetime, travelling at ground level through eight distinctive countries, crossing southern Europe and central Asia. With smartphones, internet access and bank cards left behind, they are armed with nothing but the cash equivalent of flying the route. As the third leg begins, the stakes couldn’t be higher, with one thing at the forefront of everyone’s mind – the team in last place will face elimination. The five pairs wave goodbye to Europe as they head into Asia, racing from bustling Istanbul to the remote riverside town of Halfeti in south east Türkiye. Perched on the banks of the Euphrates River, much of Halfeti was submerged when the Birecik Dam flooded the area, leaving a lone minaret rising from the water. In a leg where every decision has consequences, teams face a crucial choice. They can head south and take advantage of the well-connected tourist hubs on the Turkish Riviera, or they can cut directly across country, retracing part of the ancient Silk Road as they journey through central Türkiye. Both routes converge on the southern city of Gaziantep, where the final dash to Halfeti begins. Katie takes charge and persuades brother Harrison to tick off a bucket-list experience. An early morning wake-up to watch the hot-air balloons rising over the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia shows Harrison the value of swapping efficiency for adventure. While he’s pleased with their position in the race so far, making the most of the experience may require him to start taking Katie’s advice. After soaring up the leader board in the last leg, cousins Puja and Roshni have every reason to celebrate, not least because it’s Puja’s birthday. Buoyed by newfound confidence and determined to stay in the race, they follow their hearts and volunteer at a turtle sanctuary, where Puja reflects on the loved ones she would usually celebrate with. Chalk-and-cheese in-laws Mark and Margo are united in their desire to avoid elimination as they head via the capital, Ankara. Taking on work in a converted caravanserai, they each lean into their strengths – Margo, front of house, waiting tables, Mark in the kitchen striking up a friendship with the local chef. The experience reveals just how much more the journey could offer them both, but to continue, they need to stay in the race. On their way to the checkpoint, Mark refuses to cave in to impulsive Margo, a decision that saves them money but costs valuable time. Fearful of elimination, Andrew and Molly’s competitive streak takes over, prompting a bold change of strategy as they tackle a route they might previously have avoided, heading towards some of Türkiye’s largest coastal cities. Concerned about their finances, a last-minute stop to pick up work in Adana proves hard for Molly to stomach. Best friends from Liverpool Jo and Kush begin the leg trailing behind. Determined to stay in contention, they plot a direct route and throw everything they can into making up time, but an early missed connection threatens to derail their progress before they’ve even left Istanbul. As they attempt to stay in the race, they’re faced with a high-stakes decision that could change the course of their journey. The contestants must draw on every bit of their ingenuity and resilience to race quickly and strategically, battling to stay in the competition and avoid seeing their journey cut short. This leg will challenge all five teams both physically and emotionally, pushing them to their limits. Yet with their feet on the ground and their eyes wide open, the rewards will be great and the memories everlasting. But only one pair can cross the finish line first, claiming victory and taking home the £20,000 prize in a Race Across the World.

In our first case, father of four, Pat McCormick, goes missing in Comber, Northern Ireland, leaving his family desperate for answers. Police suspected he’d come to harm but struggled to find proof without a body. Then, six weeks after his disappearance, they made a shocking discovery – the man’s body was found stuffed in a wheelie bin and dumped in a lake. They soon had two prime suspects, but detectives needed to find a way to place them and the victim at the same place at the same time. They enlisted the help of Paul Hope, a cell site expert, who by analysing their mobile phone network data was able to track their movements on the night of the murder and help prove their guilt. With emotional testimony from Pat’s daughter Morgan, who still misses her beloved father. Traces of soil are often used to answer the ‘where’ questions in an investigation. Where something happened? Where something went? Where an investigation might lead? In our second case, which took place in Scotland, 63-year-old grandfather Tony Parsons was on a charity cycle ride but seemed to vanish into thin air. His disappearance became a major missing person's inquiry, but with no clues as to his whereabouts, his body wasn’t found. When police get a major tip-off three years later, they turn to soil expert Professor Lorna Dawson to help unearth the truth about what really happened to him and lead them to the suspects. With fascinating evidence about the case from crown prosecutor Alex Prentice.

First to arrive at the barn is Bobby Williams from Surrey, bringing the powered wheelchair that opened up a whole new sporting career. Bobby had always loved sport as a kid, but competing on the football field with his non-disabled friends was tough. When he discovered powerchair football, it was a complete game-changer. Fast, physical and fiercely competitive, the sport gave him independence, confidence and a team of his own. For years, this chair has taken the full force of matches: spins, crashes and heavy impacts have left it battered, scratched and mechanically tired. Now stepping back from playing and moving into coaching, Bobby wants the chair restored so it can be passed on to a new young player, lending someone else the same life-changing opportunity he was given. It will take the expertise of Dom Chinea, with a little mechanical help from David Burville, to strip it back, rebuild its frame and refresh its electrics so that it can be ready once again for the rigours of the court. Next through the doors are brothers Pete and Eric McCready, carrying a fragile flag with an extraordinary romantic history. In 1951, their parents – just teenagers at the time and both avid speedway fans – attended a race night at White City Stadium in Glasgow, home of the Glasgow Tigers. Amid the roar of the engines and the smell of fuel, they met for the first time – a chance encounter that would shape the rest of their lives. Years later, when the stadium was threatened with demolition to make way for the M8 motorway, their father couldn’t bear to see a piece of that history destroyed. He famously shimmied up the flagpole and rescued the very flag that had flown above the referee’s box on the night he met his future wife. Now stained, torn and peppered with holes, the flag is in urgent need of conservation. Textile expert Rebecca Bissonnet must stabilise and clean the delicate fabric before mounting it for display in order for it to be returned to the Glasgow Tigers as both a tribute to a lost sporting venue and the remarkable love story that began beneath it. From Southend-on-Sea in Essex comes Debbie Lee, with two deeply personal pieces of jewellery: a charm necklace and bracelet handmade by her father from stainless steel cutlery. An engineer with a gift for invention, he painstakingly crafted pairs of miniature charms – including boots, guitars and crosses – in two sizes so that Debbie and her mother could wear matching sets. Over time, sadly, many of the charms have become detached, and some have been lost altogether. Now, master goldsmith Richard Talman faces the demanding task of recreating the missing pieces, not from the precious metal he is used to but in tough, unyielding steel – namely, Debbie’s late mother’s original cutlery. This gruelling task very nearly defeats Richard, and it takes every ounce of his grit and determination for the necklace and bracelet to once again be worn with pride as a testament to Debbie’s father’s ingenuity and skill. Lastly, Sarah Weir from Harrogate arrives with a battered but beloved bagatelle board that has brought her family together for generations. Originally owned by her great-uncle Dick, the game became a centrepiece of family life, particularly at Christmas, when the annual champion’s name would be added to the back. For Sarah’s mother, who was determined her adopted children would always feel they belonged, the ritual was simple: lunch, washing-up, then the bagatelle board. Even now, it continues to unite the family, including Sarah’s autistic grandson, who happily joins in when the game comes out. But decades of enthusiastic play have left the board warped, faded and structurally fragile. It’s a job for the many expert talents of David Burville, who must reinforce the frame, replace the missing pins and restore the playing surface – ensuring this noisy, competitive tradition can continue to echo through family gatherings for many years to come.

After giving them business-building action plans at his life-changing makers’ boot camp, Dom catches up with textile weaver Shiv from Brighton and portrait artist Jill from Berkshire to find out how they have turned them into the long-term, money-making careers they dreamt of. After seeing her at his boot camp in the summer of 2024, Dom drops in on Shiv at her studio to find out how her business has taken off and exactly what that means for her bottom line. In Berkshire, Jill reveals how her action plan led to her giving up her nursing job and how much she now earns from her art.

This episode comes from Leeds Castle – which is not in Yorkshire! Located in Kent, the castle was bought in the 1920s by the English American heiress Lady Baillie, who renovated it according to her vision of a medieval retreat but with the latest technology, such as hollow beams through which phone cables were run. In the 1930s, Leeds Castle hosted lavish parties attended by guests from the worlds of entertainment and royalty. In one of the rooms, Eric Knowles is shown a secret staircase that Lady Baillie used to escape parties, leading to a sumptuous dressing room. Hoping to buy a bit of a glamour for themselves are two teams of families, who have an hour to buy three profitable items. In red are mother and daughter Eileen and Joanne. Eileen reckons she’s a good haggler while Joanne is determined not to buy tat. Their opponents are dad and daughter Steve and Becca; their motto is if you like it, buy it. With expert Jonathan Pratt by their side, the blues check out a stall of model cars, but they’re not to Steve’s liking, so they motor on. Across the fair, the reds pick up a framed photo of Concorde cruising above New York, but expert Catherine Southon doesn’t think it will take off at auction. In the sale room, one bonus buy is definitely worth writing home about, and Eric thinks the other has legs – four in fact!

HMS Queen Elizabeth is Britain's biggest ever warship. It took nine years to build her at a cost of £3.5 billion. Nearly 1,500 sailors, marines and aviators have left for a make-or-break four-month deployment on the high seas. This is to forge the brand new ship's company into an effective fighting force, but their main mission is to test the top secret F-35B Lightning Stealth Fighter – the most advanced fighter aircraft in the world that will give the ship its lethal sting. After three months at sea, the test pilots from the Royal Navy and RAF have successfully landed the F35 jets on the flight deck for the first time and even tested launching and landing in hurricane conditions. So far, so good. But now they are about to try a method of landing never attempted before. It carries great risks but could revolutionise carrier operations globally. Another first for HMS Queen Elizabeth will be to launch the jets with heavy weapons for the first time, but suddenly one of the ship's massive gas turbines overheats dangerously and all flying is cancelled. It's a massive setback but one that has to be resolved as soon as possible. Finally, the Queen Elizabeth heads to New York and enters the harbour in spectacular fashion. The ship transforms into a floating embassy to take on her secondary role as diplomatic envoy to help consolidate relations with the UK's closest ally. Whilst many of the ship's company head ashore to enjoy the delights of Manhattan, a round of glittering cocktail parties and VIP functions are hosted on board for the great and the good of America's political, industrial and military elite. It is now that the world-renowned Royal Marines band come in to their own.

In a first for Paul and Bob, they venture to southern Ireland to fish the mighty Lough Corrib. At 43.5km long, it is Ireland’s largest lough and one of the best places in the country to try trout fishing. This is very different to fishing the Hampshire chalk streams, as they did a few years ago - this time they are out on boats and try out a new technique called dapping.

Our first case concerns a young man, Dolton Powell, fatally stabbed by an armed gang after a party. A group of suspects are arrested and questioned, but they remain tight-lipped and give nothing away to investigators. In a bid to uncover the truth about the horrific crime, police secretly record the young men as they huddle together and discuss the events of the night. However, they speak in a secret language that was hard to understand. They needed expert help and turned to forensic linguist Nicci MacLeod, who had to crack their code, decipher the true meaning of what they were saying and eventually prove their guilt. With powerful testimony from Dolton’s sister Andrea who recalls the devastation the gang caused and a step-by-step account of the case from investigating officer Sophie Ferguson. Expert witnesses can help solve all types of crime - not just violent ones. In the second investigation in this programme, police received reports about suspicious activity at a business premises in Kent and discovered a large-scale cannabis farm run by an organised crime gang. Detectives soon realised that this particular site was a drop in the ocean, and the drug traffickers were in fact running a country-wide operation. However, to bring about charges, they needed to know exactly how much of the illegal drug this huge factory could churn out, so they called on the help of drug expert Adrian Parsons to calculate the financial value of the cannabis the gang were producing. His evidence helped convict the gang, and their custodial sentences totalled over 90 years. It was one of the biggest cannabis operations ever discovered in the UK.

Now more than ever, forensic science is opening up the possibility of catching criminals for crimes that have remained unsolved for years. In this episode, a case that had lain dormant for 30 years is revitalised when a new forensic investigator examines the evidence. Glasgow woman Mary McLaughlin was found strangled to death at her West End flat in 1984. Without witnesses or other crucial leads, the case remained cold until 2014, when forensic biologist and DNA specialist Joanne Cochrane was asked to re-examine Mary’s clothing. Joanne’s analysis of a dressing gown cord opened up the case and led to the conviction of a notorious sex offender. Mary’s daughter Gina McGavin recalls the terrible impact her mother’s murder had on the family and the relief that the killer was finally caught. In our second case, police made a gruesome discovery in east London in the summer of 2022 – a young female student’s body had been placed in a suitcase and dumped on a quiet roadside.

Paul, Bob and Ted travel to one of the UK’s most northerly chalk streams, Driffield Beck at Mulberry Whin in East Riding of Yorkshire.

It’s an idyllic setting to fish, this time for wild brown trout. They waste no time getting started but are slightly distracted by Ted, who is obsessed with rolling in the mud on the riverbank, getting himself into a very messy state - leading to Bob booking an appointment at a luxurious doggy spa not far from their fishing spot.

Romesh crosses the border from Uganda into Rwanda, a country he feels has been defined by westerners almost entirely by the 1994 genocide. More recently, the British government announced plans to send refugees seeking asylum in the UK to Rwanda. Rom’s affable guide is performance artist, genocide survivor and peace activist Hippo, who initiates him the cultural significance of sharing milk, puts him to work helping to maintain the pristine streets of the capital, Kigali, and shows him where Rwanda plans to house asylum seekers sent from Britain. Leaving the busy capital behind, they venture east to a village where they try to create indigenous art. In Akagera, the country's largest national park, they encounter incredible wildlife, including giraffes, impala and lions. After trying to take on the women's national cycling team, the pair head to the National Genocide Memorial Museum to learn more about what happened in 1994.

He and Hippo end their Rwandan adventure via a magical encounter with a family of wild gorillas.
