Episodes
Birmingham Irish I Am
Musician Angela Moran looks at the history of Birmingham's Irish residents, talking to local people and presenting rare archive footage. She discovers the impact that the 1974 pub bombings had on the community, many of whom felt the need to disguise their heritage, and recalls her own experiences of growing up in the 1990s, when being Irish became fashionable.
The British Chinese
British-born Chinese vlogger Shu Lin explores the history of the Chinese community in the UK from the 1950s through to the present day.
British Bangladeshis
Aminul Hoque came to Britain in 1980 as a three year-old, from the young nation of Bangladesh.
He explores why thousands of families settled here in the 1970s and 80s, and how they faced hardships and racism while building a new life in Britain.
Drawing on rich film archive from the period, meeting those who settled in London and Luton, and through his own experiences growing up in East London, Aminul tells the stories of Bengalis who worked hard, fought racism and made their homes here over the course of two key decades.
As his children grow up in the UK, Aminul wants them to know about their own Bangladeshi roots. He takes the family back to where he and his dad came from, his home village in Sylhet province. Now it's up to his kids to decide if they want to keep the links with their homeland - but as British Bangladeshis.

Extracted
Extracted features 12 untrained competitors attempting to survive extremely grueling conditions, perilous terrain, and the threat of fearsome predators in the unforgiving Canadian wilderness. Meanwhile, some miles away, their family members are locked down at a secluded headquarters watching them navigate their dangerous surroundings alone via a 24/7 live feed. The fate of each untrained contestant in the wilderness lies in the hands of their family members back in HQ. Each amateur survivalist's family has the power to decide whether their loved one has what it takes to brave the elements and fight to be the last one standing, or whether the family will push the ominous "Extract" button and remove their loved one and their whole family from the competition. Extracted begs the question: how far will their loved ones let them go for a chance for their family to win $250,000?
Tensions mount and strategic alliances are forged, as the opposing families negotiate and compete to send essential lifelines and resources to their competitors in the wild, to help them endure the harsh conditions they are faced with. Pressure reaches a fever pitch as each family is faced with the critical decision – will they push their loved one to the brink or push the Button?
