Bring Back Borstal

In the 1930s, borstal was a much-feared institution designed to reform young offenders by enforcing compulsory work, education, discipline and intense physical activity. In its heyday, the system worked, with low levels of reoffending, in stark contrast to today's statistics. In a social experiment, 13 trouble-makers - some of whom have criminal convictions - volunteer to become borstal boys, spending four weeks in a castle in Northumberland. Will the experience set them on the straight and narrow? Taking on the role of governor is one of the UK's leading criminologists, David Wilson.

Back in Time for Brixton

A family give up their modern lives for one summer to experience what life was like for Caribbeans who immigrated to Britain in the postwar period. Beginning in 1948, the year the Empire Windrush arrived at Tilbury and discharged its passengers, the Irwin family travel through the 1950s and 60s, guided by presenter Giles Coren and social historian Emma Dabiri who introduce them to their new homes as well as the events of the time. Along the way the Irwins discover the food, work and entertainment of first-generation immigrants making their lives in Brixton.

Make Or Break?

Eight couples whose relationships have reached breaking point are whisked off to a tropical Mexican resort, where they will find out whether their current squeezes are really right for them. Expert-led behaviour workshops, challenges, and sex therapy sessions aim to give each participant a deeper understanding of themselves, and each other. However, on arriving at the resort, each couple's relationship is put "on a break", and they are forced to swap partners every 48 hours, meaning the temptation to play away might prove too much for some.
