Season 1
Episodes
Episode 1
In this episode, Paul meets 13-year-old Mackenzie, who was born with microtia, a condition that meant his left ear was underdeveloped. He also meets brother and sister Emily and Luke, who were both born with cystic fibrosis, and gutsy nine-year-old Lara who has a blood disease that has affected her since she was a baby.
Episode 2
In the second episode of series, Paul joins eight-year-old patient Lily for a scoot around the hospital corridors. Lily was rushed to GOSH three months earlier with severe pain in her thigh. After a week of tests she was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of leukaemia.
Episode 3
In the third episode of series, Paul meets 11-year-old patient Fazeel, who suffers from a rare condition known as EB, which effects just 5000 people in the UK and currently has no cure. Fazeel's condition means he has delicate, painful skin and also needs regular eye checks to look for damage or blistering inside the eye.
Episode 4
Paul meets 13-year-old, dog-loving Amelie, who's been coming to GOSH since she was a baby with a very rare case of juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Paul also gets to meet another little girl that has lived at GOSH since she was 11 months-old, three-year-old Esme, who has a complex heart condition. Lastly, Paul meets eight-month-old little charmer Alexander, who was born profoundly deaf. He's going to have surgery which could mean Alexander will finally be able to hear!
Episode 5
In episode 5, Paul first meets three-year-old Angel who is a regular visitor to Eagle Ward, the hospital's kidney centre. Effervescent Angel has been visiting GOSH three times a week for two and a half years as she needs dialysis while she waits for a new kidney, and her infectious personality has made her a much-loved patient. Paul is soon smitten by her positive character, so much so he readily accepts her invitation to her upcoming birthday party on the ward – but when the big day arrives, can he help make it a celebration Angel will never forget?
Episode 6
In the final episode of the series, Paul meets nine-year-old Ocean who was in perfect health until she woke up one morning with a headache and a mysterious swelling on her forehead. Following tests, Ocean was diagnosed with Pott's Puffy Tumour, a very rare life-threatening bone infection. Ocean bravely says, "I wasn't scared or worried, I was just wondering what it was."
Recently Updated Shows
EastEnders
Set in the East End of London, the show focuses on the tensions between love and family with stories ranging from hard-hitting social issues, to personal, human tragedies. And there's plenty of funny moments too.
Classic characters old and new across thousands of episodes have shared a drink in The Queen Vic, shed tears of despair or joy, sat on Arthur's bench in the Square... and at some point or other they probably crossed paths with Ian Beale.
Rick and Morty
Rick is a mentally gifted, but sociopathic and alcoholic scientist and a grandfather to Morty; an awkward, impressionable, and somewhat spineless teenage boy. Rick moves into the family home of Morty, where he immediately becomes a bad influence.
Bookish
London, 1946 is the dynamic, dangerous and chaotic setting for this stylish new detective drama, with the eccentric Gabriel Book at the very heart of the story: a self-appointed consultant detective to the local police. The thousands of books that line the shelves of his shop provide him with all the knowledge he needs.
Book has gathered around him a host of lovable, damaged misfits whom he informally protects, cajoles, and mentors. His wife Trottie runs the wallpaper shop next door. She's a charismatic adventuress whom Book loves deeply but not physically, for they are in a 'lavender' marriage to help conceal Book's sexual orientation in a time when it was illegal to be gay.
Bookish marries post-war nostalgia with the reckless and life-affirming atmosphere of the times, creating a fast-paced and stylish detective drama.
Bergerac
Bergerac is based on the original series created by Robert Banks Stewart, which starred John Nettles and ran for nine series on the BBC between 1981 and 1991. The modern re-imagining will honour the iconic detective drama, but with a contemporary twist. Unlike the original hit from the 80s, the new series will see one character-led murder mystery run across all six episodes, in place of a new storyline each episode.
Viewers will meet Jim Bergerac as a broken man, grappling with grief and alcoholism following his wife's recent death. His mother-in-law, Charlie, is concerned Jim isn't putting his daughter Kim first and, when a woman from a wealthy Jersey family is murdered, Jim must fight through his personal struggles to become the formidable investigator he once was.
With a troublesome convict resurfacing from his past, Bergerac is required to call on his sharp investigative instincts and past successes to navigate the intricate family dynamics, and watchful eyes of the police force, in order to solve the case.
History's Greatest Mysteries
History's Greatest Mysteries will investigate a wide range of historically compelling topics and the mysteries surrounding each including the Titanic, D.B. Cooper, Roswell, John Wilkes Booth, and more. Each program within the franchise will showcase fresh, new evidence and perspectives including never-before-released documents to the general public, personal diaries and DNA evidence to unearth brand-new information about these infamous and enigmatic chapters in history.
