Season 1
Episodes
Episode 1
Cameras follow guide dogs at every stage of their journey - from newborns to trainees and veterans - as well as the humans that both train them and rely on them. This edition features Hester, a visually impaired 16-year-old and Paralympic skiing hopeful who's about to become one of the UK's youngest guide dog owners.
Episode 2
Cameras reveal how Ela and her pups - including Kinky, with the broken tail - are getting on. Puppy midwife Tim is keeping an eye on Ela's weight loss, but the youngsters are thriving. At puppy school, trainee guide dog Milton tries to use a pedestrian crossing.
Episode 3
Paralympic skiing hopeful and GCSE student Hester takes another major step on her journey to becoming one of the UK's youngest guide dog owners: she takes potential match Pickle on her first guided walk.
Meanwhile, we meet Asfaq, a career-focused Londoner in his thirties who's facing degenerative sight loss but doesn't intend to slow down a life that's packed with cycling, yoga, marathon running, socialising and a busy job in tech. He's now in advanced training with potential guide dog Max. Asfaq has never owned a dog before, so getting Max is a major step in every sense but could transform his life if they're a good pairing.
In Shrewsbury, the Saunders family prepare to say goodbye to Ela's litter of seven potential guide dog puppies. They're heading to Guide Dogs HQ in Leamington Spa, where they'll spend a week getting assessed before heading on to live with puppy raisers.
Puppy raiser Myriam is getting used to life with new pup Frankie, as older dog Lando teaches the little one how to navigate puddles.
At Puppy School for Guide Dogs, the pupils are learning not to be distracted by food (tricky!) and how to cross the road safely.
And we meet Carmela, a little girl with a rare form of muscular dystrophy, and her assistance dog Tinker, a poodle mix who helps her with everything from opening doors and taking off her coat to picking up dropped crayons and joining her on bike rides.
Episode 4
It is a big day for Paralympic skiing hopeful Hester as assessors consider whether she is ready to be paired with Pickle on a permanent basis. In London, Ashfaq is settling into life with Max, but needs a little more help from trainer Barry to get more confident letting Max off the lead.

Fightland
Fightland follows a disgraced, formerly incarcerated boxing champion who returns to London to seek vengeance against the crime family he thinks betrayed him. With edge-of-seat action and populated by dangerous characters, this is a world of money and power never seen before.
On the night Duke Kilroy becomes world heavyweight champion, a vicious assault leaves his brother, Calvin, dead, causing Duke to snap and results in him spending eight years in a U.S. prison. Upon his release, and after having made a sinister discovery, Duke returns home seeking vengeance against the man he believes set him up -- the criminal kingpin and former promoter, Kingsley Marshall. But Kingsley has vanished, leaving his children and wife, Joy, who happens to be the love of Duke's life, to pick up the pieces.
Working with a cartel desperate to control London's drug market, Duke begins a high-risk game of infiltrating Kingsley's empire to destroy it from within and smoke out his enemy. But amidst a volatile criminal landscape, and competing influences threatening to pull him off course, Duke will need to channel everything that made him a champion fighter into his bloody pursuit to win the ultimate victory - revenge for his brother.
