James Blake returns to the front line of online crime to investigate one of the darkest threats facing young people today: a hidden world of sextortion, grooming, harmful algorithms, and sexual exploitation moving across social media platforms with frightening speed. What begins with victims in the UK and warnings from police, experts, and whistle-blowers soon reveals a much larger and more disturbing picture, where online predators, organized networks, and global demand turn private screens into places of fear, blackmail, and abuse. The investigation takes him from Britain to the Philippines, where he joins a specialist international task force during police operations targeting livestreamed sexual exploitation linked to offenders abroad. Through survivor testimony, frontline officers, digital evidence, and the reality of raids on suspected abusers, the documentary exposes how technology, money, and anonymity can connect criminals thousands of miles away with vulnerable children. Urgent, shocking, and deeply human, it asks who is really protecting young people when the worst crimes online are only a few clicks away.
In a world where convenience rules what lands on our plates, this eye-opening investigation pulls back the curtain on the true cost of our modern food economy. What once promised abundance and innovation has morphed into a system where a few powerful corporations hold the reins, shaping government policy, squeezing farmers, and prioritizing profit over people. The result is a food supply that is astonishingly efficient yet painfully vulnerable — and deeply tied to a global health crisis fueled by ultra-processed products. With incisive reporting and compelling voices from leading food system critics, this urgent follow-up dives deeper into how profit-driven consolidation has rewired what we eat and how it’s made. Through revealing stories from workers, families, and the experts who dared to investigate, it challenges everything we think we know about food, health, and corporate control — and urges viewers to rethink the cost of what ends up on our tables.
A chilling investigation dives into the looming threat scientists call “Disease X” — an unknown pathogen capable of triggering the next global pandemic. Led by physician and broadcaster Chris van Tulleken, the documentary explores how modern life, global travel, and human–animal contact are creating the perfect conditions for a catastrophic outbreak. What begins as a scientific inquiry quickly becomes a race against time to understand how close we may already be to the next crisis. To uncover where Disease X might emerge, van Tulleken retraces the fault lines of past outbreaks, from the deadly Nipah virus in Malaysia to the spread of bird flu among dairy cattle in California. Through frontline reporting, expert interviews, and unsettling real-world examples, the film reveals how fragile global health defenses truly are — and why the next pandemic may not be a question of if, but when.
Beyond the technological breakthroughs, the documentary also examines the personal side of a complex and driven figure whose success came with immense pressure and sacrifice. From his pioneering marketing philosophy—“You press the button, we do the rest”—to the impact his inventions had on journalism, family life and popular culture, the film paints a compelling portrait of innovation during a rapidly changing era. It’s an engaging look at the birth of mass photography and the remarkable legacy of a man whose influence can still be felt every time a picture is taken.
