North Korea's Greatest Show

Reporter Marcel Theroux is granted rare access to North Korea as the country contemplates reunification. As he explores the country with director Karim Shah and his official minder Mr Ri, the highlight of his trip is the first Mass Games to be held in five years, with 100,000 citizens singing their hearts out for the fatherland in celebration of the country's 70th anniversary. They also tour Pyongyang's stunning metro system, and visit a trade fair and a collective farm, and Theroux gets an officially sanctioned haircut, in a country where the wrong style can get you into trouble with the police. Travelling outside the city, his guides show off the country's first ski resort, and the team witness a changing country with an emerging soft capitalism.

The Repair Shop

The Repair Shop is a workshop of dreams, where broken or damaged cherished family heirlooms are brought back to life.

Furniture restorers, horologists, metal workers, ceramicists, upholsterers and all manner of skilled craftsmen and women have been brought together to work in one extraordinary space, restoring much-loved possessions to their former glory.

Many of these items have incredible stories behind them and a unique place in history: from an accordion played in the Blitz by a woman who is now in her 90s, to a beautifully crafted clock made by a father who was completely blind; a Pinball machine that is currently being used as a kitchen counter, and a Davenport desk with its trademark fake drawers which fooled burglars - and their crowbar.

The Repair Shop is an antidote to our throwaway culture and shines a light on the wonderful treasures to be found in homes across the country.
