Episode 8

In Wales, haulier Ian gears himself up for a major cross-country mega-move through the rural Welsh countryside. He's tasked with moving a redundant industrial inlet valve that's been signed off as scrap metal. Ian and his cargo require a police escort at the front and his support driver Anthony at the rear. Ian's controlling a total combined weight of around 100 tonnes, so the rugged Welsh terrain is sure to test his truck to the max.

As the team head off, the rural roads soon throw up a number of difficulties. There's an exceptionally slender stone bridge, barely any wider than the width of the load to navigate. And there's little let up when Ian must master a turn of almost 180 degrees where every angle needs to be absolutely accurate!

In Hull, mega mover Steve is in charge of shifting a 38-tonne screener, a clever contraption used to sift and sort all types of construction waste. Backed up by long-time colleague Carl, Steve uses a control pad to manoeuvre the 38 tonner onto his trailer. But just as he begins rolling the trailer's neck back into place, Carl spots a serious snag. The edge of the screener is sat too close to the neck of the trailer and transporting the cargo in this position would risk sinking the entire shipment. It takes some clever problem solving to get the payload on the move.

However, just after they set off, Carl spots another serious obstacle to a smooth escape – a work crew are doing roadworks on Steve's only exit route. Could this shipment be scuppered before it's even started?

Moonshiners

The secret and illegal world of moonshining stretches all across Appalachia raking in a pretty penny for those who choose to shine. Moonshiners will go to unprecedented extremes in their efforts to hide their still sites and cloak their distribution networks, some can hide in plain sight. With new styles of shine being tested and sold there is a king's ransom waiting for those bold enough to grab it. But those who enforce the law are wise to shiner deceptions and more determined than ever to catch them red handed and in the act of making Moonshine. The day of reckoning may be around the corner, but don't sell the Moonshiners short. Each has a keen understanding of how to stay one step ahead of the law in their region, and in this ongoing cat and mouse game you never know who will end up in the trap.

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.
