Ju Hua Zui (2023)
During the Xianfeng period, the export of tea from the Qing Dynasty caused the Sino-British trade to be in deficit for a long time, which greatly damaged the interests of Britain. In order to reverse the situation, Queen Victoria specially ordered the Marquess of Dalhousie, the British governor in India, to send botanist McKinnon to sneak into China to steal tea tree seedlings and tea tree seeds and recruit Chinese tea planters. At this time, the Taiping Army was booming, Guangdong and Guangxi were in shock, and the court was in chaos. Hu Ying, the young owner of Tianquan Tea House, a Hunan tea giant, and his brother Hu Jiabao returned from Beijing to their hometown in Anhua, Hunan to celebrate their father's birthday. Because of the traitor's trick by mistake, on the day of the birthday banquet, the whole family was in distress, and Hu Ying accidentally saved his life. McKinnon learned of Hu Ying's whereabouts from the British Consulate General in Shanghai, rescued him through untold hardships, and took him and tea tree seedlings to smuggle out to sea, to the Asa Valley in India at the southern foot of the Himalayas, and hired Hu Ying as The general comprador of tea. Hu Ying used his unique skills to help the British grow tea with great success. But Hu Ying was not angry that the British Royal Cavalry bullied his compatriots, so he killed the British and fled back to Xinjiang. Therefore, around a battle between Chinese and British tea merchants, Hu Ying paved the way to seek revenge and explore secrets. The country's hatred, the family's distress, and the world's hatred and the sea are all in one. From the shore of Dongting Lake to the foot of Kunlun Mountain, scenes of tragedies and comedies of love and hatred that are rare in the world are staged.

Married at First Sight
Married at First Sight is an extreme social experiment that follows six brave singles yearning for a life-long partnership as they agree to a provocative proposal: getting legally married to a complete stranger the moment they first meet. Four specialists – sexologist, Dr. Logan Levkoff; psychologist, Dr. Joseph Cilona; sociologist, Dr. Pepper Schwartz; and spiritual advisor, Greg Epstein – create what they believe are three perfect couples, based on scientific matchmaking. The couples will not meet until they walk down the aisle and see each other face-to-face, for the first time, at the altar. Over the course of several weeks, episodes capture each couple's journey as they go from wedding, to honeymoon, to early nesting, to the daily struggle of working on their marriage. After several weeks together, each couple must make a decision: do they remain together or decide to divorce?
Am I Being Unreasonable?
Nic is grieving a loss that she can't share with anyone whilst stuck in a depressing marriage. Only her son, Ollie who she adores, keeps her going. But when Jen arrives in town her life is lit up with laughter and through this kindred soul her dark secret starts to bubble up.
The Capture
When proud British soldier Shaun Emery's conviction for a murder in Afghanistan is successfully overturned due to flawed video evidence, he begins to plan for his life as a free man with his six year old daughter. However, when damning CCTV footage emerges from an incident in London, it isn't long before Shaun finds himself fighting for his freedom once more, only with lies, betrayal and corruption spreading further than he ever could have imagined. With DI Rachel Carey drafted in to investigate in what could be a career-defining case, she must discover if there is more to the shocking evidence than first meets the eye. Rachel will soon learn that the truth is merely a matter of perspective - before deciding what hers is.
McDonald & Dodds
McDonald & Dodds is set in Bath and follows the wildly ambitious DCI McDonald, who is partnered with the shy, modest DS Dodds. While McDonald has transferred from the mean streets of South London to leap up the career ladder, Dodds has happily languished on the shelf for most of his working life.
McDonald is a tough, driven, battering ram of a cop who cracks cases through sheer force of will; Dodds – the tortoise to her hare – is quiet, unassuming and enigmatic. But thrust back into frontline action for the first time in a decade, he discovers a hidden talent for deciphering puzzles. Two contemporary Britons, seemingly with nothing in common, thrown together, boss McDonald and loyal sidekick Dodds forge a rumbustious, entertaining and ultimately – give or take a few setbacks – effective partnership.
