A Run For Your Money
Bob McAngus regularly drives his own juggernaut lorry from Britain to Italy. This is a filmed record of one mission - a journey from Felixstowe to Trieste. His manifest shows that he is carrying 20 tons of British furniture, bound ultimately for Qatar on the Persian Gulf.
It becomes clear that modern truckers are more than mere lorry-drivers. Finger-tip controls, ' sleeper' cabs, and the comparative sophistication of continental motorway facilities make McAngus an aristocrat among routiers.

The Masked Singer
Part guessing game and part singing show, The Masked Singer sees 12 famous faces compete to pull off the best performance, with their identity elaborately and imaginatively concealed, thanks to an expert team of talented costume designers. The stars will be transformed and they will take on a masked identity and become a fantastic character which will disguise them for the whole series.
Forget any thoughts of fancy dress – they'll be full-on, original, movie-standard creations taking inspiration from worlds as varied as manga, superheroes, and wild animals and mythical creatures. Their transformations will be total, even their speaking voices will be disguised in interviews.
It will be up to a superstar panel to lead the viewers at home in their quest to discover who they are. Although the stars aren't judged on their voices, they'll still need to give their best performance – the audience's least favourite will be eliminated, before the panel try to guess their identity and unmask them.
