Storyfilms for BBC Two Mondays 9pm. Episode one tonight – 6th September Editor: Duncan Hill Series Producer: Adam Hopkins, Execs: David Nath, Peter Beard
This is the story of how football’s Premier League was formed, told by its stars. What began in 1992 as a controversial breakaway has become the most watched sporting competition in the world.
Duncan Hill (an Aston Villa fan) edited episodes 1 & 4 and Bahader Mattu has been working with the archive across the series.
Once Duncan had stopped crying about loosing Grealish, I asked him how he found the edit; “A lot of time and effort was spent in straddling that line between purpose and entertainment but most importantly, making sure a playfulness could flourish with the use of music and archive. It was a great team at story films to work with and I really enjoyed the experience.”
Jay Blades opens the doors to his brand-new workshop in Bradford in this new series for BBC Two.
In each episode, three of Britain’s finest furniture makers and experts craftspeople – Ciaran, Isabelle and Saf – will be given the task to team up with six woodworkers from the surrounding area to handmake a bespoke piece of furniture for local community heroes nominated by members of the public from across Yorkshire.
Whilst Jay will be collecting information about each local hero to find out what’s special about them and why their local community wants to thank them in this unique way for going above and beyond, the workshop team will be learning from the experts they’re working alongside. Each has a personal reason to be there, and the series explores their lives whilst following how they go about making these items and learning on the job.
Belle Borgeaud cut one episode and commented: ‘It was a great team to work with and a really nice show to make. Feel good telly – and all for the most deserving people – exactly what we all need at the moment!’ Hugo Fowler, an adept of the Repair Shop, confided that ‘After working on 2 episodes, I’m pretty sure I could throw together a walnut and mahogany table, in my mind at least.’
Enter the workshop and watch the craft at 9pm on Wednesday 18th August on BBC Two.
“Generation 9/11” is an intimate film driven by the stories and personalities of its protagonists, six young people who were born in the wake of a global tragedy which, for them, was also deeply personal as it marks the day they lost their fathers before they ever got to meet them. Marking the 20th Anniversary of 9/11, this film also tells the story of an entire generation shaped by the attacks and their aftermath.
Following the lives of this unique group of teenagers, the film will document what happened to them and their families in the 20 years following the assaults. Whilst the film weaves together shared chapters of the lives of these children – their first day of school; the first time the absence of their father was felt; the moment they learned how their father died – it also serves as a lens to look at the broader world and the effects the tragedy had globally.
Teddy Bekele worked on finishing the series directed by award-winning filmmaker Liz Mermin and produced by Arrow Media for PBS, Channel 4 and Arte France.
Soaring gold prices pitting miners against miners over the frozen winter months!
This next chapter in Discovery’s winning franchise features fan favourites Tony Beets, Rick Ness, Dave Turin, Fred Lewis, and Dustin Hurt doing what they do best – digging for gold. In this off season spin-off, miners will face life-threatening conditions and below-freezing temperatures as they work to purchase the right land in the face of rising gold prices.
See lots of heavy machinery break into the frozen tundra while “King of the Klondike” Beets talks about how he needs to step up his prospecting game, while Turin tries to stay a step ahead of the competition after spending lots of time resurrecting old mines. Hurt, aka “Dare Devil Miner,” has his own cross to bear: he needs to make sure his camp wasn’t destroyed by recent landslides.
Steven Struthers (Episode 5) and Tom Savage (Episode 8), both Gold Rush afficionados for many years, return to edit this new series with excitement to find out how the miners will make it through the mining off season!
Watch the first episode at 9pm tonight on Discovery!

With GETAWAY DRIVER, October Films brings an event like no other to the Discovery Channel, the ultimate driving fantasy hosted by Fast & Furious star Michelle Rodriguez. This 8-episode competition series features 24 elite drivers from drift champions to street racers to hotshot YouTubers who compete to prove they have the skill behind the wheel and the mental toughness to outrun and out-drive the competition in a massive nearly 60-acre compound filled with obstacles. Part Baby Driver, part Grand Theft Auto, the Getaway Drivers will put it all on the line – sacrificing their own cars for the opportunity to be the wheelman in a real-life car chase.

Produced by Double Act Productions for National Geographic’s Sharkfest segment, Shark Gangs is a new ob doc looking at the behaviour of sharks. For years sharks have been viewed as solitary predators, but scientists have recently discovered a surprising new behaviour. In this special, they reveal how this apex predator likes to hang out in gangs. What is behind this change? Do sharks enjoy a social life or are they working together to become even more effective hunters?
Editor Charlie Webb worked on the series and reflects on his time editing the show:
‘Really enjoyed working on the show with Alex and Rob at Double Act. Some of the photography within the film is breath-taking. The score is also amazing and really adds drama to the film. It was done by Paul Saunderson (Three identical strangers, Trying and Life). The channel loved it and I look forward to people being able to see it.’
Find out more at 10pm on National Geographic on 7th July or start streaming on Disney+ on Friday 9th July.
Produced by Blink Films, this new two-part documentary for ITV explores the amazing world of conjoined twins, discovering how families cope with the extraordinary circumstance of being parents to the rarest of babies – one out of every 200,000 live births.
This documentary features three-year-old twins Callie and Carter from Idaho, who are fused from the chest down with two legs between them, and whose parents Nick and Chelsea Torres only have a few months left to decide whether to opt for separation.
They meet still-conjoined and now separated twins on their quest to make the best decision for their children. Cameras follow the work of leading British doctors at Great Ormond Street Hospital as they try to separate conjoined twins over four nail-biting operations.
Editor Tanya Trochoulias worked on Episode 2 where the Torres family find out how 18-year-old twins Sohna and Mohna from Amritsar in India cope being joined together. These twins have got over people staring at them and are training in electrical engineering observing that having four hands means they can work more quickly than others. They are healthy and happy – although they rule out getting married at the moment.
