Episodes
Episode 1
In episode one we meet Laura who arrives with mates to help her celebrate her recent divorce; and Debbie, proud grandmother-to be who is celebrating a very special baby shower for her daughter, Jess. A few years ago, Jess collapsed, almost fatally, so this was a day they weren't sure they would ever see. And Liverpool brides-to-be Trudie and Danielle are getting married and have thrown everything at the big day with the help of the hotel's wedding planner.
Episode 2
Checking into the Shankly this week is a party of 41 stags, who are being looked after by trainee guest relations manager James. But the morning before the lads arrive, he is nowhere to be found. Owner Lawrence challenges staff to set up a glamping festival on the roof in just one week, a loved-up couple need a last-minute bridal suite and a bride-to-be brings her friends to the hotel for her second hen party this year.
Episode 3
A busy Friday sees almost 700 party-mad people checking in. But with just minutes to go, there are problems with the plumbing. It's even worse for Charley, who has arrived for a hen party organised by her brother, as there are problems with their room - and general manager Damian struggles to placate them. Meanwhile, owners Laurence and Katie throw an extravagant circus-themed party for the twins' fourth birthday - and all the staff are invited.
Episode 4
Laurence asks Kris to fight in a charity boxing match to raise cash for a homeless shelter. Can he make the leap from mild-mannered hotel manager to prizefighter?

Beyond the Gates
Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
