Kate Humble's Coastal Britain - Season 2
Season 2
Episodes
Holyhead Island
The naturalist wanders along the shorelines of Britain. On Holyhead Island in north-west Wales, Kate discovers one of her favourite rare birds and Britain's longest breakwater - a 1.7-mile-long feat of Victorian engineering.
Northumberland
Kate's starting point for the latest leg is the picturesque village of Alnmouth, once a leading grain port in the 18th century. Today it's known for its colourful houses and a gentle sweep of sandy beach where Kate meets a former GP, Claire, who uses the sand to create temporary large - scale artworks and portraits, which are visible for a few hours only, before the tide swallows them.
Ayrshire
In this third episode, Kate walks a rugged and scenic route along Ayrshire's coast, the birthplace of Scotland's National Bard, poet Robert Burns. Less than an hour from Glasgow, this corner of southeast Scotland is rich in history and pristine wilderness.
Conwy
In this fourth episode, Kate walks a hilly coastline that is home to two of north Wales's most popular tourist destinations — the medieval walled town of Conwy, and the Victorian resort of Llandudno, once dubbed the Queen of Welsh resorts.

Married at First Sight
Married at First Sight, the extreme social experiment where four couples will meet for the very first time on their wedding day. Three top relationship experts are controlling this radical experiment involving eight Aussie singles, using a mix of neuroscience and psychology to try to create four perfect matches. Relationship psychologist John Aiken has interviewed single applicants across the nation and built a detailed personal profile for each one. Neuropsychotherapist Dr Trisha Stratford compiled the detailed neurological profiles. And psychologist Sabina Read met the applicants in their own environment to prepare to pair them with the most suitable partners. These four extremely brave and hopeful couples will face the most terrifying wedding imaginable – tying the knot with someone they have never laid eyes on.
Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
Unforgotten
Unforgotten focuses on ‘cold' murder cases. Each series deals with a new case, introducing seemingly unconnected characters who are gradually revealed to have some relationship with the victim. As the murder mystery unfolds, the emotional ramifications of the crime on the lives of those affected are also explored.
The Handmaid's Tale
The Handmaid's Tale is the story of life in the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States. Facing environmental disasters and a plunging birthrate, Gilead is ruled by a twisted fundamentalism in its militarized ‘return to traditional values'. As one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred is a Handmaid in the Commander's household, one of the caste of women forced into sexual servitude as a last desperate attempt to repopulate the world. In this terrifying society, Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – all with one goal: to survive and find the daughter that was taken from her.
