How to Live a Simple Life

Peter Owen Jones goes back to basics to try to live a simpler and more meaningful life.

Inspired by his experiences in 'Around the World in 80 Faiths', part-time vicar Peter Owen Jones returns to credit-crunch Britain and to the realisation that modern life has become a frenzy of spending and working.

He yearns for a life of simplicity and meaning - a deeper connection to both nature and people.

Filmed over the course of nearly a year in his beautiful Sussex parishes, the first in a three-part series follows Peter as he tries to turn his back on consumerism.

But downsizing, helping the local farmer and growing his own veg doesn't prove enough, so Peter decides to follow the example of medieval saint Francis of Assisi and give up money in a last-ditch attempt to find fulfilment.

Can Peter carry this off in his own parishes?

And will his parishioners support and possibly even join him?

Peter hones his skills as a gardener, chicken keeper, wood-chopper and dish-washer in an unpredictable and entertaining journey as he tries to uphold the Rule of St Francis.
 

Inside Out 2

TX Time: 22h00
Genre: Reality Makeover, Reality, Home Improvement

Inside Out 2

Southern California home renovators Carmine Sabatella and Mike Pyle work with clients who want a stunning home transformation inside and out - and they'll make sure they get both in a new eight-episode season of Inside Out.

In each episode of the series, Carmine, a real estate agent and interior designer, and Mike, a landscape designer, will pitch their design plans to clients.

The catch is that the budgets are set, so the guys must be persuasive to score a larger chunk of the renovation dollars.

More money for Carmine will mean he can max out the home's interior with dream amenities, while extra cash for Mike will give the property wow-factor curb appeal and major outdoor living perks.

Regardless of who gets the bigger bucks, Carmine and Mike will join forces to balance their clients' priorities and deliver cohesive, gorgeous spaces from the inside out.

In the Season 2 premiere: The duo take on a massive project for a couple who is desperate to complete much-needed renovations to their home.

Carmine taps the potential of their interior by creating a modern kitchen with a mobile island and a spa-like main bathroom with a striking wood paneled ceiling.

And, outdoors, Mike astonishes the family with a beautifully updated pool, fire pit lounge and game zone.
