Episode 3
The number of people living alone in the UK has doubled in 40 years to a greater number than at any time in our history. Feelings of loneliness and isolation are prevalent in densely-populated as well as rural areas, and a recent study suggested that loneliness can be as bad for your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Recent surveys have discovered that loneliness is an issue that's now impacting negatively on the lives of Britons of all ages. Two hundred thousand pensioners in Britain said they went for more than a month without a single conversation with friends or family. Teenagers, meanwhile, feel isolated because of social media, which it's claimed is feeding a future mental health crisis.
Episode 4
This episode explores the rising use of cannabis, which is now increasingly being smoked openly on Wiltshire's streets as people's attitudes to the class B drug change fast. 999 call handler Holly Goodall explains 'there is a split between society seeing cannabis as being a good thing and cannabis as being a really bad thing'. This shifting attitude is especially evident among the young. When the police catch a group of teenagers smoking joints outside, one unfazed teenage girl responds: 'I know you think it's like illegal' - and when officers tell her that really it's actually still illegal-illegal, she offers in mitigation to 'next time smoke it indoors'.and I think it's messing with people's brains.'.

Beyond the Gates
Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.

The Ministry of Time
The Ministry of Time, a newly established government department, is gathering ‘expats' from across history in an experiment to test the viability of time-travel. Commander Graham Gore (an officer on Sir John Franklin's doomed 1845 Arctic expedition) is one such figure rescued from certain death – alongside an army captain from the fields of the Somme, a plague victim from the 1600s, a widow from revolutionary France, and a soldier from the seventeenth century.
The expats are placed with 21st century liaisons, known as 'bridges', in unlikely flatshares. Gore has to learn about contemporary life from scratch: from air travel to industrial warfare, from feminism to Spotify, from cinema to indoor plumbing; and he must negotiate cohabiting with the ambitious modern woman who works as his bridge. After an awkward beginning, the pair start to find pleasure and comfort in each other's company, developing a relationship that is simultaneously tender, intense and profoundly unprofessional; and the expats, adrift in a new era, form friendships that ground and support them in the lonely 21st century, where they have outlived everyone they ever knew and loved.
When a deeper conspiracy at the Ministry begins to reveal itself, the bridge must reckon with what she does next. Will she save or sacrifice the exiled misfits she has come to care for so deeply?
