Series advising people with excessive lifestyles on how to become healthier. Model and presenter Bianca Gascoigne is shocked into dealing with some issues.

Presenter George Lamb and Dr James Lambert advise people with excessive lifestyles on how to become healthier and avoid serious illness. 

Twenty-two-year-old glamour model and presenter Bianca Gascoigne loves the red carpet lifestyle and as the stepdaughter of Paul Gascoigne is used to living life in the glare of publicity. As Gazza's stepdaughter, she's also well aware of the temptations of excess the celebrity limelight can bring.  

But watching her stepdad struggle with drink hasn't stopped Bianca starting down the same path herself. At the celebrity parties where free drink flows like water the young model confesses that often she'll have no idea how many times her glass has been topped up - 12 vodka mixes on top of several glasses of champagne is nothing unusual on a night out.  

Insecure about her looks and lacking confidence in her ability to engage a crowd without booze, Bianca has become dependent on a mask of heavy make-up and a haze of alcohol to boost her confidence at celebrity events. But with the limelight comes the spotlight and paparazzi pictures of a drunk and disorderly Bianca make for great headlines.   

She'd love to sober up and be able to open the papers to a different set of headlines and photographs. 

The programme follows Bianca as, shocked by the results of her living autopsy and encouraged by dedicated medic Doctor James, she grapples with her self-confidence issues.

BBC Three - Pulling, Special

Louise is moving in with Joe, Donna has bagged a rich man and Karen is with a chauvinist.

Comedy based around the tangled love lives of three women. Louise is moving in with Joe, Donna has bagged a rich man with no personality and Karen has found herself a chauvinist.

One-off special comedy based around the tangled love lives of three women. 

Louise is moving in with Joe, the love of her life; Donna has found a rich man with no personality; and Karen has realised that the only thing a woman really wants in life is to make her man happy, so she has found herself a chauvinist.  

So everything's sorted, or at least until things start to go wrong. Louise discovers that in actual fact she sort of hates the love of her life and spends more and more time trying to get away from him.  

Karen is fine until Billy staggers back into her life and tells her that he's dying. She decides that she's going help him do all the things in life that he wished he done. What she didn't realise was that all these things were to be done on drugs and she is soon sucked back into a world of drunken insanity.  

Donna is fine until Karl comes back from Italy. The moment she discovers this she dumps her new rich man, but when she discovers that Karl has returned to marry his Italian girlfriend, she immediately picks the rich man up again and pretends that everything is fine. Donna sees the girlfriend with someone else, but is told that they are having an open relationship. Donna is horrified at what Italy has done to the man she once loved.

Things come to a head when Joe, misreading Louise's reticence as love, invites her into a hot-air balloon and promptly asks her to marry him. She turns him down.  

Karen finds out that Billy isn't really dying, while Donna tells Karl that she's come to terms with his open relationship.  

The show ends with a wedding, a puppy in a hospital room and the cliffhanger of whether Karl gets on a plane and leaves Donna's life forever.

Tuna

BBC Three - Blood, Sweat and Takeaways, Tuna

Six Brits go to live and work alongside the workers in Indonesia's tuna industry.

Six young British food consumers go to live and work alongside the workers in Indonesia's tuna industry, enduring the heat in the canneries and life on a traditional tuna boat.

When it comes to food, we are spoilt for choice. From top class restaurants to low cost supermarkets, we take it for granted that we can buy whatever food we want, whenever we want it.

But would we feel the same if we knew the human cost of food production?

Six typical young British food consumers go to live and work alongside the millions of people in south east Asia's food production industries. They must catch, harvest and process food products that we eat every day, seeing behind the scenes of the tuna, prawns, rice and chicken industries for the very first time. 

They eat, sleep and live with food workers in the poorest regions of Indonesia and Thailand, surviving on the same wages. The average wage for food workers here is around three pounds a day.

To begin with, the Brits tackle Indonesia's tuna industry in Bitung on the island of Sulawesi. In the UK, we consume over a billion tins of tuna a year and Bitung's canneries supply to many British supermarkets and sandwich chains.

The Brits live with tuna workers in basic communities, endure 90-degree heat in the canneries and struggle with the harsh realities of life on a traditional wooden tuna boat in the western Pacific. The extreme conditions affect them all in many different ways, as do the hand to mouth existence of the workers they live with.
