In these three episodes, we'll see how life on the farm becomes more ambitious, more expensive, and much more unpredictable. A major new arrival promises to transform the future of the business, while unexpected births bring fresh challenges and moments of joy among the animals. As the livestock move out to pasture and new technology is introduced to improve daily operations, every success seems to be matched by a new obstacle. What begins as a season of optimism soon becomes a race against time, budgets, and the realities of modern farming. Meanwhile, Jeremy takes a crucial step into the cattle trade and discovers that turning farm produce into a profitable venture is far more complicated than expected. His long search for a pub finally appears to be reaching a breakthrough, but expert advice reveals a daunting list of costs, regulations, and risks that threaten to derail the entire project. With major financial decisions looming and pressure mounting from every direction, the dream of building something bigger than a farm hangs in the balance.
Across two continents and from one pole to the other, this spectacular wildlife series explores the wonders, mysteries and fragilities of the Americas. Narrated by Tom Hanks, it reveals extraordinary animal behaviour, dramatic struggles for survival and some of the planet’s most varied landscapes, from frozen wilderness and ancient forests to deserts, tropical seas and vast grasslands. Filmed over five years and more than 180 expeditions, the series combines intimate wildlife stories with remarkable natural spectacles, showing both the resilience of life and the delicate balance on which these ecosystems depend. In the first three episodes, the journey begins along the Atlantic Coast, where wild horses battle, bald eagles pursue ospreys, sharks move among great shoals of fish, raccoons adapt to city life and black bears search ancient forests for food. It then heads south into Mexico, where deserts meet the tropics and pygmy owls, hunting orcas, orchid bees and mysterious creatures in flooded caves reveal a hidden world of astonishing diversity. Finally, the Wild West brings an even harsher test of survival, as coyotes face a snowbound Yellowstone, hundreds of rattlesnakes emerge from their winter refuges, woodpeckers compete to store food, bison clash across the Great Plains and immense gatherings of cranes continue one of nature’s most ancient migrations.
As climate chaos intensifies, animals across the planet are being pushed into conditions their bodies and instincts were never designed to face. Floods arrive where drought once ruled, storms grow stronger, seas warm and familiar habitats disappear. Narrated by Andrew Lincoln, this six-part natural history series follows wildlife confronting these extremes at close range, revealing not only the destructive power of a changing climate but also the extraordinary ingenuity, resilience and adaptability animals use to survive. In the first three episodes, the struggle begins on an increasingly extreme Earth. Burrowing owls on the North American Great Plains race to protect their chicks from tornadoes, cheetahs in Kenya battle record floods, polar bears search for vanishing sea ice and chimpanzees survive severe drought by digging their own filtered water holes. Rising waters then transform entire ecosystems: pygmy elephants face monsoon floods in Borneo, a platypus is swept into a violent flash flood in Australia, and a lone lioness in the Kalahari turns an unexpected flood into a rare hunting opportunity. Finally, along the world’s coasts, Caribbean flamingos confront a category-five hurricane, anole lizards cling on through violent winds, California sea otters struggle through huge storms and collapsing kelp forests, while clownfish on the Great Barrier Reef face a marine heatwave that threatens the very anemones on which their families depend.
In episodes 5 and 6, Ragnar’s rise becomes a mortal threat to Earl Haraldson, as prophecy, fear and ambition turn Kattegat into the center of a brutal struggle for power. After the Seer warns that Ragnar seeks his death, Haraldson moves from suspicion to violence, attacking Ragnar’s home and torturing Rollo in an attempt to destroy the challenger before he can grow stronger. Wounded, hunted and betrayed, Ragnar must decide whether survival is enough, or whether the time has come to confront the man who has ruled his people through fear. The conflict explodes into a direct challenge that will decide the future of Kattegat. Still weakened but driven by destiny, Ragnar faces the Earl in a duel where honor, vengeance and leadership are at stake. What follows is not only a fight between two men, but the collapse of an old order and the birth of a new one. With funerals, rituals, loyalty and sacrifice surrounding the change of power, these episodes reveal the dark beauty of Viking tradition and the moment when Ragnar Lothbrok’s legend truly begins to rise.
In the final three episodes, the investigation takes a decisive turn when the Frankfurt luggage records and bomb-damaged clothing recovered from the wreckage lead Scottish detectives to Malta. A small clothes shop and the memory of a mysterious customer begin to connect the bomb to a wider international network, while cooperation between Scottish police, the FBI and the CIA becomes increasingly strained. As investigators follow the trail toward Libya, a secret CIA source and similarities with another aircraft bombing appear to offer the breakthrough they have been searching for. More than a decade after Pan Am Flight 103 was destroyed, the case finally reaches the courtroom. Following years of political negotiation, two Libyan suspects stand trial under Scottish law at Camp Zeist in the Netherlands. But the prosecution still depends on fragile witness testimony and painstaking forensic evidence assembled across several countries. As key witnesses are challenged and doubts emerge, the series builds toward a tense question that has haunted the victims’ families since 1988: will the investigation finally deliver justice?
Orbiting Earth at around 27.000 km/h, the International Space Station is one of humanity’s greatest engineering achievements, but also one of the most unforgiving places ever built. Astronauts and mission controllers recount moments when routine work suddenly became a fight for survival: a spacesuit filling with water, toxic ammonia spraying across a spacewalker, dangerous temperature extremes, radiation, fire, contamination and the constant threat of collision. The series reveals how every mission depends on training, improvisation and split-second decisions in an environment where even a small failure can become fatal. Across the two episodes, presented here together in a single uninterrupted video, the danger escalates from the hazardous construction and maintenance of the station to the growing risks of life aboard it. Astronauts face micrometeoroids and space debris travelling at lethal speeds, docking emergencies and system failures, culminating in the extraordinary 2021 incident when the newly arrived Nauka module unexpectedly fired its thrusters and sent the entire ISS rotating out of control. With communications at risk and the structure under immense strain, crews in orbit and controllers on Earth must work together to regain control. The result is a gripping story of courage, science and survival inside a machine that has kept humans continuously living in space for more than two decades.
