Episode 2
This second episode takes a look at the brainiest member of the game show family - the quiz show. Bradley hears the intriguing story of how Mastermind came to be created and is interrogated himself in the famous Mastermind chair by host John Humphrys. He meets Fred Housego to find out how the London cabbie became Mastermind champion in 1980 - and the first quiz show winner to become a household name.
We also hear how quiz shows were hit by scandal in the late Fifties - long before Millionaire's Coughing Major - and how Who Wants To Be A Millionaire changed the course of TV history when Judith Keppel became its first million pound winner. Quiz show hosts Bamber Gascoigne and Nicholas Parsons help explain how the role has changed over the decades; and we meet some of the quiz show's most prolific contestants, who have now become the ultimate stars to beat on hit daytime series like Eggheads and The Chase.

Worst Cooks in America
Chef Anne Burrell is back for a seventh season of trying to turn some of America's worst cooks into kitchen stars. This time, however, the recruits are seven celebrities who can showcase their talents on TV and in movies, but not no so much in the kitchen. Burrell competes against Worst Cooks in America newcomer Rachael Ray to see which chef can lead one contestant to make the most impressive culinary transformation. Actors Dean Cain, Ellen Cleghorne, Jaleel White and Barry Williams join reality stars Jenni "JWoww" Farley, Chris Soules and Kendra Wilkinson in boot camp. The winning star gets $50,000 for charity and bragging rights for his or her mentor. Not all of the celebrities will make the cut, however; after an opening potluck dinner each mentor selects three recruits to be on her team, leaving one celebrity to be sent home before the competition really begins. Burrell is looking to extend her record to 5-2, while Ray looks to get the win in her first season.
Doc
Doc centers on the hard-charging, brilliant Dr. Amy Larsen, Chief of Internal and Family Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis.

She can rely only on her estranged 17-year-old daughter, whom she remembers as a 9-year-old, and a handful of devoted friends, as she struggles to continue practicing medicine, despite having lost nearly a decade of knowledge and experience.
Destination X
Destination X sees a group of contestants go on the road trip of a lifetime but they have no idea of their location. In order to win, they must figure out their mystery locations. Once they're on the blacked-out Destination X bus, the journey turns into a real-life game board, with challenges designed to offer clues as to their location, along with a few misdirects to keep them guessing.
At the end of each episode, the contestant who places an X on a map furthest from the actual location packs their bags. The first participant to reach Destination X will be crowned the winner.
