The Big Build for Children in Need
In this Children in Need special, the DIY SOS team joins forces with Radio 2 for a mega build in Leeds. Nick Knowles and his team set to work to transform a derelict site into a brand-new base for the young women's charity Getaway Girls. This is one of the show's biggest projects ever, and it's a massive challenge to complete in just ten days.
Radio 2 are on a mission to recruit the hundreds of volunteers needed from their millions of listeners, while a brigade of the station's presenters dons hard hats and high viz. Tea-time presenter Sara Cox, Scott Mills, Rylan, and DJs Spoony and Trevor Nelson get stuck in, shovelling dirt, plastering and painting. Meanwhile, across town, the Getaway Girls choir are preparing a song to perform in front of the volunteers as a thank-you on reveal day.
Singer-songwriter Emeli Sande coaches the girls through their nerves, explaining she was a nervous teenager once too. Finally, the day of the reveal arrives. Zoe Ball arrives in town to broadcast the choir's anthem live to the nation and to get a sneak preview of the spectacular new building.
Before, the Getaway Girls activities had been spread out across town using temporary spaces. Now, the new building in Seacroft provides a much-needed safe space with facilities all under one roof: a music and media studio, counselling and activity rooms, a creche, offices and a garden. Getaway Girls is a Children in Need funded charity. It's been supporting young women across Leeds for 35 years; raising aspirations,
providing opportunities and offering vital counselling and support.

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.
