This episode is all about sex, drugs and alcohol. Kate and Tamal investigate a new male contraceptive at the University of Wolverhampton and a supposed hangover-free version of alcohol called alcosynth. Also, a group of women take a month off the booze to see the difference it makes to their health. The results are surprising and so are some of the women's reactions. Morland Sanders trials the smart drug Modafinil. He also looks at whether it's time to lift the ban on medical marijuana.
Stress & Blood Pressure
In this episode, Kate and Tamal look at a health problem that affects so many of us - stress. They investigate whether singing can measurably influence the stress markers in your body; the surprising effects of pollution on our heart; and the latest science around long-term brain health. In this week's big experiment a group of volunteers trial whether particular foods can reduce their high blood pressure.
Back Pain & Disease
This time, Kate Quilton and Tamal Ray investigate the subjects of pain and disease. They look into the latest scientific approaches for growing bone; the alleged curative effects of echinacea; and some of the latest surgical approaches to treating back pain. Lower back pain is thought to affect around one third of the UK population. This time, the big experiment finds out whether osteopathy, physiotherapy or yoga can help. Meanwhile, journalist Morland Sanders delves into the world of online DNA testing kits and the risks you might like to consider before sending off a sample of your saliva.

MobLand
With the most powerful clients in Europe, MobLand will see family fortunes and reputations at risk, odd alliances unfold, and betrayal around every corner; and while the family might be London's most elite fixers today, the nature of their business means there is no guarantee what's in store tomorrow.
MobLand follows two generations of gangsters, the businesses they run, the complex relationships they weave and the man they call upon to fix their problem.
Family Guy
Family Guy follows Peter Griffin the endearingly ignorant dad, and his hilariously offbeat family of middle-class New Englanders in Quahog, RI. Lois is Peter's wife, a stay-at-home mom with no patience for her family's antics. Then there are their kids: 18-year-old Meg is an outcast at school and the Griffin family punching bag; 13-year-old Chris is a socially awkward teen who doesn't have a clue about the opposite sex; and one-year-old Stewie is a diabolically clever baby whose burgeoning sexuality is very much a work in progress. Rounding out the Griffin household is Brian the family dog and a ladies' man who is one step away from AA.
