My Cornwall with Fern Britton - Season 2
Season 2
Episodes
Episode 1
Fern begins her Cornish odyssey somewhere that has a very special place in her heart: Halton Quay, on the banks of the River Tamar. This beauty spot was Fern's hideaway when she worked as a newsreader in the 1980s, and she shares a special moment when she believed she saw a family of Cornish piskies, mischievous creatures that belong to the ageold folklore of Cornwall. Fern journeys through the charming ‘hundreds' — ancient regions — of West Wivelshire, Lesnewth and Pydar, hotspots of enduring folklore. Fern enjoys the brooding wilderness of Bodmin Moor and hears one man's story of the Beast of Bodmin, a phantom wildcat allegedly stalking the moor and the surrounding areas. Next, Fern explores ancient stone circles and the peculiar Cornish sport of hurling, before heading to the lush landscape of St Nectan's Kieve. Tintagel Castle — one of the most spectacular historic sites in Britain — provides stunning landscapes and historical interest in abundance as well as one hair-raising moment for Fern. The ‘Obby ‘Oss celebration is one of the oldest surviving festivals in the UK, famous for both its age and its strangeness, so it's imperative that this slice of life is captured on Fern's journey. In Cornwall, a region surrounded by water on three sides, stories of the sea are numerous and date back hundreds of years. In a place where anything is possible, Fern stops by to meet a selfproclaimed mermaid whisperer in Padstow.
Episode 2
The presenter explores ancient regions with big histories - West Wivelshire and Powdershire, which lie between the rivers of the Fowey and the Fal. Fern's first stop takes her to the historic Boconnoc Estate, before heading to Fowey to learn more about much-loved author Daphne du Maurier.
Episode 3
The last leg of the presenter's road trip takes her to an industrious corner of Cornwall, the ancient Hundreds of Kerrier and Penwith. Fern discovers one of the best preserved ancient farming villages in the South West, which are among the oldest structures on the planet. Later, she visits the Lizard Peninsula, an area of outstanding natural beauty that as well as its unique landscape boasts a number of gems, including Cornish sea salt, Hevva Cake and Huer Huts. Finally, she meets some of the team from the RNLI at Lizard Point, the southernmost tip of mainland Britain.

Amandaland
Following three series of the Merman-produced, BAFTA award-winning series Motherland, a brand-new spin-off, Amandaland, is coming to the BBC, focused on Amanda.
Post her divorce, Amanda has had to downsize and up sticks to South Harlesden, or as the Estate Agent calls it SoHa (definitely not the area around Wormwood Scrubs prison).
With both Manus and Georgie now at secondary school, Amanda has to try and get her head around raising teenagers, dealing with modern motherhood horrors like teenage drinking, fake Instagram accounts and eco anxiety. Not even a woman as certain of her parenting as Amanda can deal with these nightmares alone.
Then there's Amanda's mother Felicity who is constantly around, and completely in denial that she is, in fact, lonely. Theirs is a slightly unhealthy co-dependent relationship based on backhanded compliments and veiled snipes about her new home.
After a brief spell of freedom, Anne is sucked back into being Amanda's minion to help her navigate the social scene with the other parents at the children's new school. Thank God for Anne.

Beyond Skinwalker Ranch
Skinwalker Ranch is now widely considered to be ground zero for UAP activity and high strangeness. Since 2020, Dr. Travis Taylor along with Erik Bard and their investigative team have been working around the clock to collect, analyze and decode as much data as possible associated with the phenomenon occurring at the site. Their experiments have yielded amazing results, but not enough to fully unlock the secret of the ranch. So, for the first time ever they have decided to expand their search for answers. In an effort to gain a broader perspective and build larger data sets, the Skinwalker team is adding two team members and taking the offensive by pursuing evidence of similar phenomena found at analogous sites around the country. No longer content to sit, waiting to be targeted…it's time to go Beyond Skinwalker.
