Episode 1

In the premiere episode we are introduced to the three families. First, there is the Fraser family (Michael - 54, Lynn - 54, Robert - 22 and Sasha - 17) from Sydney. Second, also from Sydney, is the Povey family (Tony - 49, Mel - 51, Chelsea - 15 and Samantha - 14). And the third family is the Sherry family (Glenn - 45, Vicki - 47, Ashley - 18 and James - 16) from Melbourne. All three families are under the belief that they will be travelling in luxury to a mystery luxurious location, which will be revealed to them at the airport. But, in fact they are to live with some of the oldest tribes in the world, having to live just like them, and follow out their practices. The Fraser family has to live with the Himba tribe from northern Namibia, the Povey family is with the Mentawai tribe from Indonesia, and lastly the Sherry family is with the Zulu tribe of South Africa. None of the families like what they have gotten themselves into, but how will each of them manage to cope in their new environment?

Highway Thru Hell

Highway Thru Hell focuses on a team of drivers who work for Jamie Davis, along with several other heavy recovery operations fighting to keep the roads open in some of the most dangerous working conditions ever seen on TV. The Coquihalla and nearby highways through BC's Cascade Mountains have some of the most difficult and fast changing road conditions anywhere. When it's snowing hard up top on the summit of ‘The Coq', 1200 metres below its pounding rain in The Fraser Valley. Add to that, Canada's busiest trucking route to the West Coast, Highway 1 (Trans Canada Hwy), and you have the ‘Bermuda Triangle' of trucking. Police and highway maintenance crews depend on Highway Thru Hell's heavy rescue operators to respond at a moment's notice in the worst conditions. In between the winter storms, the teams ‘off road' skills are put to the test. The rugged terrain near Hope, British Columbia dishes out some of the most unique and challenging recovery jobs over steep cliffs, down deep ravines and even in bodies of water. Highway Thru Hell is ultimately a series about man versus Mother Nature and the toughest men in the towing business being pushed to their breaking point. The stakes are high - lives, the economy and thousands of jobs depend on the highways staying open, and the last line of defense is Heavy Rescue.

The Handmaid's Tale

The Handmaid's Tale is the story of life in the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States. Facing environmental disasters and a plunging birthrate, Gilead is ruled by a twisted fundamentalism in its militarized ‘return to traditional values'. As one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred is a Handmaid in the Commander's household, one of the caste of women forced into sexual servitude as a last desperate attempt to repopulate the world. In this terrifying society, Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – all with one goal: to survive and find the daughter that was taken from her.
