Moms

How do the Moms of the animal kingdom compare to those of the human world? Do some of the deadliest predators have maternal, as well as killer instincts? The Most Extreme Moms goes in search of the top ten mothers in the wild and pitches their nurturing abilities up against those of human mothers. With polar bears that sleep through labor, elephants that give birth to 200lb babies, orangutans that build about 30,000 homes in their lifetime and marine creatures that produce 50,000 young, these Extreme Moms put humans to shame! But which animal will steal the top spot? Could it be the elephant seal cow that puts on 600lbs during pregnancy? Or perhaps the mother alligator that carries its young between her snapping jaws? Some moms are really cool, but what makes a Mom extreme? We're counting down the top ten Moms on the planet — so standby for the mother of all programs, when motherhood is taken to The Most Extreme.

Dads

How do the paternal instincts of the animal kingdom match up to those of the human world? Could some of the macho males of the wild also be sensitive new age fathers? The Most Extreme: Dads searches the African plains, the mountaintops of the Andes and the murky waters of Japan to find the ultimate fathers in the animal world. From lions that defend up to 20 cubs, to the marsupial mouse that makes the ultimate sacrifice to give its young a better chance of survival, there are no limits to what these Dads will do for their kids. But which creature will be the world's number one Dad? Will it be the South American ostrich that spends 40 days and 40 nights watching over the eggs and then has up to 20 chicks by his side for the next two years? The Darwin frog that eats its eggs and stores them in its vocal sacs to keep them out of the way of hungry predators? Or perhaps the mother of all fathers will be male Emperor penguins that starve for four months and huddle together on land to protect

What is the deadliest animal on earth? With all stings considered, it's got to be an animal that gives lethal injections. We're counting down the top ten most extreme venoms in the animal kingdom, and finding out just what happens when these toxins get under our skin. The countdown contains a real life reptilian monster with deadly dribble, an octopus the size of a golf ball with spit that's 10,000 times more deadly than cyanide, and a killer snail that harpoons its prey and injects them with a cocktail of toxins, including one painkiller 100 times more effective than morphine! We'll also meet a woman who has a thing for bee stings. She's stung herself 45,951 times, and it's all for the good of her health! We'll also find out why a young Thai woman spent 32 days locked in a glass cage with 3400 deadly scorpions; and go on the road with Venom One — the world's only emergency anti-venom response unit.

The world is not as it seems! Sit tight as we reveal the top ten most extreme cover-ups of the animal kingdom and compare them to the ultimate human masters of disguise. Hiding in the countdown are lyrebirds that mimic the sounds of the forest — including chainsaws and cameras.

Can these crafty cover-ups be any more cunning? Find out when we go undercover to see what happens when camouflage is taken to The Most Extreme.

The Masked Singer

Part guessing game and part singing show, The Masked Singer sees 12 famous faces compete to pull off the best performance, with their identity elaborately and imaginatively concealed, thanks to an expert team of talented costume designers. The stars will be transformed and they will take on a masked identity and become a fantastic character which will disguise them for the whole series. 

Forget any thoughts of fancy dress – they'll be full-on, original, movie-standard creations taking inspiration from worlds as varied as manga, superheroes, and wild animals and mythical creatures. Their transformations will be total, even their speaking voices will be disguised in interviews. 

It will be up to a superstar panel to lead the viewers at home in their quest to discover who they are. Although the stars aren't judged on their voices, they'll still need to give their best performance – the audience's least favourite will be eliminated, before the panel try to guess their identity and unmask them.
