Wild Bill

Starring and executive produced by Rob Lowe, Wild Bill is a fish-out-of-water crime drama following high-flying US police chief Bill Hixon, who is appointed Chief Constable in Boston, Lincolnshire.

Landing in the UK with his teenage daughter Kelsey in tow, Bill is ready to tackle the county's crime figures, armed with a range of statistics and algorithms with every intention of getting in and out as quickly as possible.

However, Bill soon discovers the people of Boston are just as smart-mouthed, cynical and difficult to impress as he is, and the man who's spent his life keeping the messiness of human intimacy at arm's length is reluctantly propelled into frontline policing and forced to reconsider his relationship with those closest to him.

Dr Christian Will See You Now 2

In each episode five members of the British public with pressing health problems put their private lives in the hands of Dr. Christian and his larger-than-life, first-class medical team.

Every step of their journey is captured on fixed rig cameras as they share their most vulnerable moments and intimate problems in a bid to get their health and relationships back on track.

In the Season 2 premiere: First through the doors are Liz and Darren, parents of three from Cambridge. Liz has been severely underweight all her life and it's beginning to take its toll on her self-esteem.

Kailey and Dan are next in, a young couple who are desperate to overcome their fertility issues.

Kailey worries on a daily basis about not being able to conceive and it's beginning to have an effect on the couple's relationship and sex life.

Kate and her partner Nick from Warrington are next through the clinic doors. Kate suffers from Tourette's syndrome and is looking for help with her tics, which are relentless.

Last, but not least, is 74-year-old Frank who has varicose veins. Not only is his condition causing him great discomfort, but he also finds them embarrassing.
