EndedReality show

Challenge Anneka is a British television programme, produced by the independent production company Mentorn for the BBC, which aired on Friday, later Saturday evenings on BBC One between 8 September 1989 and 15 October 1995. It was announced in 2006 that the series was returning, but this time on ITV. The first of the two specials was shown on Boxing Day 2006. The second transmitted in June 2007.

The format of Challenge Anneka involved Anneka Rice being given a task to accomplish within a certain period of time, usually two or three days. She was supposed to have no knowledge of what the task of each particular episode would be before it began, and would have to organise its accomplishment by persuading companies and people to contribute their time and resources for free. The task would usually be in aid of a charitable cause, for example building a play area for children within the local community, or something similar.

Berlin Noir

Berlin Noir, based on Philip Kerr's novel Metropolis, follows Bernie Gunther's early career as he rises through the ranks of the Berlin Murder Squad. The story is set against the backdrop of Weimar-era Berlin, a city marked by both unprecedented freedom and growing political instability. As Gunther investigates these seemingly random killings, he confronts a society on the cusp of radical change, with the shadow of the Nazi party growing ever larger. The series explores themes of truth, justice, and survival in a city teetering on the edge of chaos, as Bernie navigates a world where the rules are constantly shifting and the line between right and wrong blurs.
