Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics - Season 1
Season 1
Episodes
Astra
A sun-bleached red Vauxhall Astra GTE gives the team a headache. They also buy a classic French moped and catch up the restoration of a barn find Mini Cooper S that looked like it was heading for the crusher.
Vanden Plas
The team gamble on restoring a Vanden Plas saloon from the 1970s. But will it cost them dearly? Also restored is a child's tricycle from the '60s and catch up on a sensational restoration of a rare Sunbeam Lotus.
Francis Barnett Bike
Despite not knowing much about restoring bikes, Derek encourages the team to buy a Francis Barnett Plover at auction.
Thankfully they hand it over to two blokes in a shed who do know what they're doing. Plus, the wheels come off the restoration of an MG Metro and the emotional restoration of an MGSA.
Ford Capri
Derek thinks a 29,000-mile Ford Capri should be kept original. That proves easier said than done for the restoration team. Plus, a Hercules women's racing bike from the '50s and a Triumph TR7 is turned into a rally-winning supercar.
MGB
Derek picks out a solid-looking 1969 MGB for the team to look out for at auction. After winning it is sent to a father-and-son team to restore.
Lotus Esprit
Dave draws the team's attention to a 1979 Lotus Esprit S3. It's an expensive buy and a serious risk, but it's also a thoroughbred classic in need of a proper recommission. Will it pay off when the car is reauctioned?

Saturday Night Live
Saturday Night Live is an Emmy Award-winning late-night comedy showcase.
Since its inception in 1975, "SNL" has launched the careers of many of the brightest comedy performers of their generation. As The New York Times noted on the occasion of the show's Emmy-winning 25th Anniversary special in 1999, "in defiance of both time and show business convention, 'SNL' is still the most pervasive influence on the art of comedy in contemporary culture." At the close of the century, "Saturday Night Live" placed seventh on Entertainment Weekly's list of the Top 100 Entertainers of the past fifty years.
Family Guy
Family Guy follows Peter Griffin the endearingly ignorant dad, and his hilariously offbeat family of middle-class New Englanders in Quahog, RI. Lois is Peter's wife, a stay-at-home mom with no patience for her family's antics. Then there are their kids: 18-year-old Meg is an outcast at school and the Griffin family punching bag; 13-year-old Chris is a socially awkward teen who doesn't have a clue about the opposite sex; and one-year-old Stewie is a diabolically clever baby whose burgeoning sexuality is very much a work in progress. Rounding out the Griffin household is Brian the family dog and a ladies' man who is one step away from AA.

Naked and Afraid
Each week on Naked and Afraid, a new pair of complete and total strangers - one man and one woman - will find themselves stranded in and, quite literally, exposed to one of the world's most extreme weather environments. This duo will be left high and dry with no food, no water... and no clothes. They must survive on their own for a full 21 days, with nothing but one personal item each and the knowledge that the only prize is their pride and sense of accomplishment.

It's a heartfelt window into the life of a child – much older inside than his 11 years – using comedy and self-deprecation to win friends and connect with the small collection of people in his limited world.
