WW, the newly branded Weightwatchers diet, is put to the pound for pound road test. On this plan, no food is off limits and is allocated points depending on the carbohydrate, protein and fat content. Dieters are then given a daily point limit depending on their weight. Will it work for 32-year-old IT Manager Jas? And how will the diet stack up on our value for money leader board?

Episode 6
This week the Vegan Keto Diet is road tested by 30-year-old Holly from Kings Lynn. This diet plan combines two popular current diet plans. The Keto part is designed to put the body into ketosis where it burns fat for fuel. The Vegan element means eating only plant-based foods. Can 19-stone Holly put her years of yo-yo dieting behind her? And will this diet measure up lb for £?
Sian Williams continues on her quest to find healthier cheaper alternatives to the Nations' favourite treats. This time she joins dietician Linia Patel to find out if cereal bars really stack up as a breakfast alternative and whether the low sugar version stand up on calories and cost.
They also look at the truth behind diet fizzy drinks – can they be part of a weight loss routine or will they actually make us gain weight?
And Dr Ranj will be looking at slimming creams – can they offer a quick route to a better body? Two plucky road testers put a tummy fix cream and a skin tightening serum to the test.
Episode 7
This time the Scandi Diet is put through its paces by theatre director Jaydean. This Danish sensation combines four - literal - handfuls of food three times a day.

And will this diet measure up pound for pound?

The Newsreader
In the maelstrom of a commercial television newsroom in 1986, Dale Jennings is a diligent young reporter, desperate to become a newsreader. Helen Norville is a notoriously ‘difficult' star newsreader determined to build credibility. Paired together over three months, Dale and Helen will cover an extraordinary chain of news events — from the shock of the Challenger explosion, to the hype of Halley's Comet, to the complexities of the AIDS crisis. From messy beginnings, a deep bond is formed that will upend their lives and transform the very fabric of the nightly news bulletin. This is a story of a grand, unconventional relationship in a world on the cusp of change.
FBI
FBI is a fast-paced drama about the inner workings of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. These first-class agents, including Special Agent Maggie Bell and her partner, Special Agent Omar Adom 'OA' Zidan, bring all their talents, intellect and technical expertise on major cases in order to keep New York and the country safe.
Yellowjackets
Yellowjackets follows a girls' high school soccer team. In 1975, the Dearborn High Yellowjackets became the first team in state history to qualify for the Girls' U.S. Soccer Championship Series in Manchester, NH. They never got the chance to compete. Equal parts survival epic, horror story and pitch black coming of age, Yellowjackets tells the story of the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the Ontario wilderness, chronicling their descent from a friendly, cooperative team to warring, cannibalistic clans. At the same time, it follows the lives they've attempted to piece back together nearly twenty-five years later, proving that the past is never really past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.
EastEnders
Set in the East End of London, the show focuses on the tensions between love and family with stories ranging from hard-hitting social issues, to personal, human tragedies. And there's plenty of funny moments too.
Classic characters old and new across thousands of episodes have shared a drink in The Queen Vic, shed tears of despair or joy, sat on Arthur's bench in the Square... and at some point or other they probably crossed paths with Ian Beale.
