EndedReality showDIY

We really are a nation of DIY addicts.

Unfortunately however just because we have the best tools and all the right gear doesn't necessarily mean we have the skills.

In fact as this series shows – millions of us are totally useless at DIY. And to prove it a lot of disastrous DIYers have kindly filmed their less than perfect handiwork.

So we're going to delve into the tool box of misfortune and incompetence and visit the homes of DIY disasters up and down the country. This really is the show where anything that can go wrong, does go wrong.

Yellowjackets follows a girls' high school soccer team. In 1975, the Dearborn High Yellowjackets became the first team in state history to qualify for the Girls' U.S. Soccer Championship Series in Manchester, NH. They never got the chance to compete. Equal parts survival epic, horror story and pitch black coming of age, Yellowjackets tells the story of the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the Ontario wilderness, chronicling their descent from a friendly, cooperative team to warring, cannibalistic clans. At the same time, it follows the lives they've attempted to piece back together nearly twenty-five years later, proving that the past is never really past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.
