Decks of Kin: Santino Le Saint
Musical taste may not be genetic, but in some families musical roots run deep. Decks of Kin looks at black music culture through a generational lens as young artists get into conversation with a relative from an older generation who influenced their musical evolution.
By meeting big names through this intimate and relatable access point, we get to share the foundation stories of today's stars, in conversation with those they're closest to. And by learning about the music and the culture of the generations who influenced them we'll contextualise and explore the richness of British black music heritage with an appreciation of just how deep these musical roots really run.
Filmed in the intimate surrounds of an old school record store, these personal audiences unfold as our star and their relative reminisce about the heritage they both share in an unfiltered and free flowing conversation.
We meet singer Santino Le Saint and Dad, Charlie, who was part of 1990s hip hop group 57th Dynasty. Rapper Novelist who is joined by his Mum and Creative Advisor, Dee. And Jordss sits down with her Mum, Verna, whose eclectic music taste influenced her to become a DJ.

The final touches of Have I Got News for You are put together only hours before recording, allowing guests to comment on the late-breaking news stories of the day.
Good Omens
According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.
So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except Aziraphale, a somewhat fussy angel, and Crowley, a fast-living demon--both of whom have lived among Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle--are not actually looking forward to the coming war.
And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist...
King and Conqueror
King and Conqueror is the story of a clash that defined the future of a country – and a continent – for a thousand years, the roots of which stretch back decades and extend out through a pair of interconnected family dynasties, struggling for power across two countries and a raging sea. Harold of Wessex and William of Normandy were two men destined to meet at the Battle of Hastings in 1066; two allies with no design on the British throne, who found themselves forced by circumstance and personal obsession into a war for possession of its crown.
