description: The documentary will air later this year.
encoded: Queen Camilla will feature in a powerful new documentary to mark the UK-wide National Year of Reading 2026, produced in partnership with The Open University. The documentary will celebrate the transformative power of reading through moving and personal stories from individuals whose lives have been changed by discovering the joy of books. With a passionate interest in shining a spotlight on the importance of reading, Queen Camilla has founded The Queen’s Reading Room and acts as patron of several organisations which foster and facilitate reading across the UK, including BookTrust, the Royal Literary Fund and the National Literacy Trust. In the film, Queen Camilla will reflect on her lifelong love of literature, sharing the childhood experiences that first sparked her passion for reading and the comfort she still finds in books. These include personal recollections of her father, Major Bruce Shand, and his experience being held in a German prisoner-of-war camp; when reading reinforced a lifelong enthusiasm for the written word which he later imparted to his daughter. Suzy Klein, head of BBC arts and classical music TV, said: "The simple act of opening the pages of a book can be one of the most powerful and transformational choices we can make. Books aren’t trying to distract us or sell us anything, instead they take us outside our own problems and challenges to a whole new world – one we can see in our mind’s eye. "And the power of that different point of view can deeply change our perspective on ourselves – as demonstrated by the moving, emotional stories of the contributors to this special documentary. "As we mark the National Year of Reading, we hope to inspire people of all ages to pick up a book, to see the world in new ways and potentially change their own lives. We are especially delighted that Her Majesty The Queen, a devoted reader and champion of literature, is at the heart of this celebratory new project exploring the power of great books to change lives f…

encoded: Hot on the heels of BTS's live performance on Netflix, the world-famous band are letting the cameras in on their journey as they reunite to make their fifth studio album, Arirang. From the director who brought audiences The Greatest Night in Pop, this documentary offers rare behind-the-access to the group as they work through their doubts and share moments of laughter and rediscovery. As per Netflix, the documentary will follow the band as they contemplate how to begin again, wrestle with honouring the past and redefine an ever-evolving identity as they grow as artists and global icons. "I did not try to tell the entire story of BTS," director Bao Nguyen said of the documentary, "I tried to understand what this particular moment meant to them and what story could be found inside that. "What I kept seeing, just through observation and listening, was a brotherhood formed through creativity and through proximity, through living together, working together, growing up together, and carrying an emormous weight together." So, after their recent comeback performance, when can audiences tune into the documentary? Read on for everything you need to know. What time is BTS: The Return streaming on Netflix? As ever, the documentary will be released on Netflix at 8am for audiences in the UK on Friday 27 March. For those in Korea, the film will be available to watch at 5pm KST which, for those across the pond, is 3am eastern time and 1am pacific time, so will be quite the late night for those in the US.

description: There is nothing cosier than a David Attenborugh documentary.
encoded: A new David Attenborough documentary has its release date confirmed on BBC to mark the broadcasting icon and national treasure's 100th birthday. Secret Garden will focus on the beauty and wildlife that can be found in our very own back gardens. The documentary was announced earlier this year as a celebration of the monumental birthday of the soon-to-be centenarian. Audiences will be able to tune in to the new documentary on Sunday 5 April at 6pm on BBC One, with Attenborough's 100th birthday the following month on 8 May. All the episodes will have a boxset release on iPlayer at the same time. Secret Garden is a five-part series set in different gardens across the UK. Each episode meets the gardeners who have created these beautifully wild spaces, as well as the animals that inhabit them. From pine martens in the Western Highlands to blue tits in Bristol, dormice in South Wales, swallows in the Lake District and otters in Oxfordshire, the series reveals an undiscovered world right on our doorstep. View oEmbed on the source website Secret Garden is just one of three new shows the BBC is releasing, along with bringing back some of David Attenborough's classic nature shows, in a special week-long celebration to mark the huge milestone in May. Making Life on Earth: Attenborough's Greatest Adventure will feature exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage revealing the dangerous, three-year and 40-country journey to film the landmark 1979 series Life on Earth. Meanwhile, a celebratory live event called David Attenborough's 100 Years on Planet Earth will take place at the Royal Albert Hall. In the official trailer for Secret Garden, the natural historian comments: "Across the British Isles, there are magical places: Our gardens. "Each is home to a cast of remarkable animals and each has a story to tell. Welcome to a hidden world full of life, drama and surprise. Right on our doorstep, Secret Garden." David Attenborough first appeared on our screens over 70 years ago…

description: The new film will allow the singer to tell her harrowing story in her own words.
encoded: A new documentary for Disney+ has been confirmed which will share Duffy's story with "honesty and courage". Duffy is a Grammy, BRIT and Ivor Novello award-winning singer who found success with her 2008 multi-platinum album Rockferry, and namely its lead single Mercy. She rose to fame for her unique sound and trademark style reminiscent of the 1960s. She released a subsequent album in 2010 entitled Endlessly before disappearing from the public eye for a decade. In 2020, the Welsh singer published a heartbreaking post on her social media revealing that a decade earlier she had been drugged, before being kidnapped and taken to another country, where she said she was held captive and raped. While she has shared extensive personal accounts to her social media and website about the time, she has never given a traditional interview about the events. The new Disney+ documentary will be a retrospective film that covers the singer's life, from her upbringing in Wales, through to her staggering rise to fame and her withdrawal from public life following her harrowing experience. As well as hearing from Duffy herself, the film will feature archive content and interviews with family, friends and close peers in the music industry. Sean Doyle, vice president of unscripted at Disney+, commented: "Fifteen years ago, Duffy was one of the most famous singers in the world. Her voice was distinctly recognisable and powerful. Songs Mercy and Warwick Avenue from her debut album led to three BRIT Awards, a Grammy and Duffy being at the peak of her career. "And then she disappeared. This film will give Duffy the chance to tell her story in her own words. I am grateful to our collaborators at Rare TV for this unprecedented access, along with Stellify Media for handling this project with sensitivity and care. "We set out in a search for impactful, female-led stories in collaboration with Northern Ireland Screen, and it’s a privilege that Duffy's is the first we're able to help tell. But above …

In each episode, an elite team of NYPD detectives relive the homicide investigations that defined their careers, and season 2 opens with the murder of Joey Comunale. In 2016, Joey Comunale was reported missing by his father. Investigators went to the apartment where he was last seen, where they found evidence of foul play. But what exactly happened to Joey Comunale? Read on for the full story. Who was Joey Comunale? Joey Comunale was a 26-year-old Hofstra University graduate from Stamford, who had travelled to New York City for a night out. What happened to Joey Comunale? Joey Comunale was partying at a nightclub in New York City, before heading to an after party with James Rackover, his friend Lawrence Dilione and three girls they had met earlier that night. Surveillance footage showed Comunale entering an apartment building in the Upper East Side before leaving with Dilione and the three women. A short while later, he was seen re-entering the building with Dilione. After that point, he wasn't seen again. While at the apartment, Joey was stabbed and killed. A medical examiner determined that the cause of death was multiple stab wounds to the torso. His body was then stuffed into a car boot. He was found in a shallow grave in New Jersey after being burned. When questioned by the police, James Rackover said he had hosted a party at his apartment, which Dilione, a number of women, and a man he didn't know attended. He said that he didn't know what happened to the man who came to the party. Detectives then questioned Dilione, who told them (via ABC): "I know James. He lives in Apt. ___ of 418 East 59th Street. I went with Joey to a party that James threw in his apartment ___ on November 13, 2016. We took Joey's body to Oceanport, New Jersey and we buried it in a vacant lot." Dilione then showed investigators where the bod…

description: The reality star says it’s misogynistic to judge women who choose to have children later in life.
encoded: This article first appeared in Radio Times magazine. In my 20s, I was very ambitious. Having babies wasn’t a priority. What’s more, I wasn’t the person I am now. I’m the daughter of an alcoholic and you can’t discount the impact an unstable childhood – the years of chaos – has on your life. As a young adult, I had toxic relationships and my heart broken several times. I’ve spent many years in therapy to be the person I am today. I wasn’t ready to be a mother, even in my early 30s. Biologically that’s unfair, and that isn’t going to go away without medical advances. But we can do something about the judgement surrounding women who choose to become mothers later in life. When Hilary Swank had twins at the age of 48 she was deemed irresponsible and people questioned how much time the Oscar-winning actor would be able to spend with her children. I felt furious on her behalf because when Robert De Niro became a father again at 79, and Al Pacino at 83, their situation was normalised, even though they have more than 30 years on Swank. We need to stop criticising and undermining women and, instead, celebrate their choices, whether that’s having children at 20, waiting until later in life, finding alternative routes to motherhood or remaining child-free. Last year, in the UK, 19 per cent of births were to women aged 35 to 39. Perhaps this shouldn’t be a surprise: as well as the challenge of building a career and a stable relationship, many women come out of university with crippling loans, while housing costs are phenomenal. There’s a long tail to having a baby – we’re closing gender pay gaps but the invisible workload for women when it comes to domestic life remains outrageous. Three years ago, with the support of my husband, Ercan Ramadan, I decided to be proactive and freeze my eggs for when the time was right. At 35, biologically, I still felt like I was in my prime. That was the first time I heard “geriatric” – the term for a pregnancy occurring any time after a woman i…

The Traitors' Harry Clark reveals 6 ways to enjoy Rome - including trying to see the Pope

description: Traitors winner Harry Clark went to Rome to seek an audience with the Pope – and discover the city’s many other glories.
encoded: This article first appeared in Radio Times magazine. When 25-year-olds go to Rome, their checklist usually runs to the Trevi Fountain, a gelato and a Colosseum selfie. But the winner of series two of The Traitors, Harry Clark, is no ordinary 25-year-old. An ex-Army engineer and devout Catholic, Clark travelled to the city with just one goal: meeting the new Pope. He even had a bespoke “Leo 14” football shirt made for the Holy Father. “As a Catholic, Rome is the hub; it’s the centre-point of your religion,” he tells us. Following a previous documentary, Pilgrimage, Clark had joked to his producer that next he wanted to go to Rome and meet the Pope, “and ask him all the hard questions”. From that first thought came Harry Clark Goes to Rome, which sees him charm Vatican guards, secretaries and cardinals in an audacious bid to meet Leo XIV. Was Harry (a Traitor in the reality show) granted an audience? You’ll have to watch to find out. But his mind was blown by visits to the Vatican, St Peter’s tomb and churches filled with saints’ relics. “When I walk around places like that, I think about all the ideas these people had, and what their world was like. And now Harry Clark from Slough is walking along, having a look.” Here he shares six ways to enjoy Rome if you can’t get a powwow with the Pontiff. Confess your sins I didn’t know before I went, but anyone can go to confession in Rome. You can do it at certain churches – I went to St Patrick’s Catholic American Church, and it was an amazing experience. I was nervous at first because I hadn’t confessed for nearly a decade, since I was about 16. I had built up all these sins! I was there for a long old time. Confession was great for me because I’m one of those people who’s like, “Therapy? Nah, I won’t do therapy. What do these people know about me?” But when I went to confession, it really felt like therapy. Eat all the pizza I’m a fussy eater – usually I survive on chicken nuggets and chips. My mum, who came with me to Rom…

description: The late broadcaster’s powerful words on loss, dignity and the end of life.
encoded: Broadcaster Dame Jenni Murray, best known for hosting BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour for more than three decades, has died at the age of 75. A defining voice in British broadcasting, she spent 33 years on the programme, becoming its longest-serving presenter and conducting landmark interviews with figures including Margaret Thatcher, Hillary Clinton and Margaret Atwood. Following the news of her death, BBC director general Tim Davie paid tribute to Murray as "a broadcasting icon", while Radio 4 controller Mohit Bakaya described her as "warm, fearless and beloved by listeners". Below, we revisit one of her most personal columns, first published in Radio Times magazine in February 2022, in which she reflects on death, dignity and the right to choose. I’ve been thinking a great deal about death in recent weeks and particularly asking what might be the manner of my own passing. My hope to have the right, when the time comes, to choose to die with dignity in my own home surrounded by the people who love me began some 16 years ago when I witnessed, within six months of each other, the death of my mother and then my father. For a whole year my mother suffered terrible pain and total incapacity in a care home as Parkinson’s disease made her life a misery. Each time I saw her she begged me to help her die. I could do nothing. Helping her would have meant breaking the law. She died, just before Christmas, alone, having reached the point where she was unable to swallow. It was not the death she would have wanted. It was not the death I wanted for her. My father used a week in the following May where I was unable to visit him to try to take his own life. It’s not unusual for people suffering unbearable pain to kill themselves in horrific ways that cause shock and misery for their loved ones. My father’s plan was to starve himself. After a neighbour found him and called me, I managed to persuade him to go to hospital where he was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer. In the nearby ho…

description: Theroux's study is too superficial for such an urgent issue.
encoded: The rapid rise of internet culture has fundamentally changed every facet of modern life, from how we communicate and how we entertain ourselves to how we learn and work together. Whether this sea change in how we live is for the better or worse is probably best left up to a documentary 20 years from now that will reflect on such a period of upheaval, in which the attention economy has taken over. And attention is seemingly the only thing that the nauseating streamers featured in Louis Theroux’s latest documentary, Inside the Manosphere, care about, as they so willingly race to the depths of morality with all the haste of a pig digging for truffles. They are known as figureheads of the 'Manosphere', an online community that promotes ideas of 'traditional' masculinity, where men adopt a more dominant role in a relationship while women's rights are marginalised. In tandem comes ignorant attitudes that breed sexism, racism and homophobia, spouted for clippable soundbites to shock and attract attention from viewers across the world. Yet despite their hate-filled and often nonsensical ramblings, their largely young and impressionable audience absorbs their grifting as fact, forming a generation of adolescents who are being moulded to their likeness. It’s an urgent and insidious issue which isn’t given the rigorous excavation it deserves by Theroux's cursory exploration that needed to be double, or even triple the length. Admitting that the landscape is a "wild frontier of streamers whose behaviour is reshaping the culture", Theroux does little to truly understand its horizons, admittedly seeming somewhat speechless as to the sheer support such tedious figures seem to attract as he tails them through the streets of Dubai and beyond. Rarely has the celebrated documentarian, who once thrived in his own discomfort, felt so out of place. Almost vibrating with insecurity, the fragile subjects of Inside the Manosphere provide several avenues for Theroux to explore, but he doesn’…

description: The documentary will see McClure and her husband look back on huge crimes that have rocked Britain over the years.
encoded: Vicky McClure is set to front a brand-new true crime documentary series alongside her real-life husband. Titled Britain’s Murder Map, the new documentary series – which is set to air on Sky History and History Play from next month – will follow the Line of Duty star and her historian husband, Jonny Owen, as they look back on huge crimes that have rocked Britain over the years. The pair will travel across the UK and investigate unsolved murders, miscarriages of justice and milestone cases that have changed the law. And they'll be speaking to experts, historians, police officers and victims’ families in an attempt to examine the lasting impact each murder has left on the community and why the cases still resonate today. Among the experts set to appear are Trainspotting author Irvine Welsh, historians Dr Fern Riddell, Huw Williams, Phil Carradice, criminologist Professor David Wilson and more. The first episode will see the duo head back to Edinburgh in 1828 to examine the Burke and Hare murders. The second episode will see the pair look back at the execution of Welshman Timothy Evans in 1950 at 10 Rillington Place – a case which played a significant role in the movement to abolish capital punishment in the UK. Subsequent episodes will also explore cover-up claims over serial killer 'Bible John’ in 1960s Glasgow and the 1959 murder of Kelso Cochrane in Notting Hill. The fifth and final episode will see the pair head back to North London in 1910 and ask new questions about the treatment of Edwardian women in the context of Cora Crippen, who was murdered by her husband Dr Crippen. Britain's Murder Map will premiere on Tuesday 7 April at 9pm on Sky History and History Play.

description: "I couldn't trust myself, but I also couldn't trust them."
encoded: Apple TV has revealed an exclusive first-look clip at its new documentary detailing shocking allegations of abuse at tantric yoga schools. Twisted Yoga follows ex-members of a global network of tantric yoga camps who went from searching for wellness and community to fearing they had joined a cult. It centres on the personal experiences of those who attended the schools while also examining accusations against the movement’s founder, Gregorian Bivolaru. Bivolaru was charged in France in 2023 with human trafficking, organised kidnapping, rape and organised abuse of weakness by a sect – he has denied the charges against him and is currently awaiting trial. In the minute-long exclusive clip, which you can watch above, we see one of the women who has chosen to speak out about her time at one of the schools. Ashleigh reflects on a moment of disorientation, caught between her instincts and her reality. Isolated and without resources, she describes the overwhelming feeling of no longer being able to trust herself or those around her. But "something snapped", she says. She sits in a dark room as she explains that she was so indoctrinated in the movement that she didn't initially understand she could ever leave. "That was when I first had the thought, 'Maybe I could leave.' But before that, that thought was too crazy. I wouldn't have thought to do that," she says. <img src="https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2026/03/Untitled-design-4-ca7a161.jpg" width="3000" height="2000" alt="A promotional picture for a TV show featuring the Apple TV logo on the right hand side with the show's name Twisted Yoga underneath.

description: The new series will hit TV screens later this month.
encoded: The revamp of Michael Mosley's Just One Thing TV series has been given a confirmed released date on BBC, and it's coming to screens soon. The show, which began as a hugely popular and successful BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds podcast of the same name, focuses on Mosley’s theory that small changes can have a big impact on your wellbeing. Episode 1 of the new series will air at 2pm on Monday 23 March on BBC One with another three episodes to follow daily that week. The entire series will be released at the same time on BBC iPlayer. It was previously announced that Zoe Ball, Roman Kemp and Clive Myrie would be fronting the revamp of the series after the tragic death of Dr Michael Mosley. Mosley himself was due to present the TV adaption, but only two episodes had been produced when he was found dead in June 2024 on the Greek island of Symi. The two episodes were then aired posthumously using footage that Mosley had filmed – and were narrated by DJ and presenter Sara Cox. The new series will see the trio follow in Mosley’s footsteps to offer tips that could help us all live healthier lives. Each presenter will front four episodes each, exploring topics they’re passionate about and travelling to a different part of the UK to meet someone who could improve their health and wellbeing and spotlight one tip, which "could be anything from drinking tea to daily press-ups or committing to a digital detox", according to the BBC. Zoe Ball is a broadcaster and presenter who began her career as the first female host of BBC Radio 1, before making the transition into TV presenting. Roman Kemp, son of Spandau Ballet's Martin Kemp, also began his career on radio, presenting Capital's Breakfast Show from 2017 to 2024. Last year, he won the third series of Celebrity Race Across the World alongside his sister Harleymoon. Whilst Clive Myrie is a journalist and broadcaster, famous to viewers as a presenter of the BBC's news programmes, often acting as a foreign correspondent. Just One Thing wil…

description: From his Weird Weekends to his new manosphere series.
encoded: Louis Theroux has been making documentaries for over 30 years, often taking a closer look at unusual and taboo subcultures, the criminal justice system and celebrities. In his latest documentary, he is casting his net further afield, as he takes a closer look at the influencers reshaping young men's ideas about masculinity. This feature-length film marks Theroux's first on-screen collaboration with Netflix, with the bulk of his projects on BBC iPlayer. If you find yourself wanting to immerse yourself into Theroux's wider works, Radio Times has compiled a list of 15 of his documentaries you should tune into next, from recent offerings to his early works. Scroll on to find out what's worth watching. 1. Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere View Green Video on the source website Where to watch: Netflix Louis Theroux teams up with Netflix and director Adrian Choa to explore the manosphere in this feature-length documentary. Travelling across the US and Europe, Theroux meets influencers who have been reshaping young men's ideas about masculinity. On his travels, Theroux meets a number of content creators, as each of them present their own interpretations of traditional gender roles and values, with Theroux challenging them on their views – which they don't all take too well. 2. The Settlers Where to watch: BBC iPlayer Fourteen years after his first visit, Louis Theroux meets some of the growing community of religious-nationalist Israelis who have settled in the occupied West Bank. The documentary received criticism upon its release, with many accusing the documentarian of "platforming" extremists. In response to the criticism, Theroux wrote in a column: "The narratives around Israel and the Palestinians are fiercely contested. No piece of coverage will please everyone. In general, I try not to over-worry about how my reporting will be received. "I trust my instincts. I accept mine is just one contribution in the vast offering of coverage. Others are valid.

description: This marks Theroux's first on-screen collaboration with Netflix.
encoded: Almost a year on from Louis Theroux's last documentary, he is now fronting his first feature-length film for Netflix, taking a closer look at the 'Manosphere'. Across 90 minutes, Theroux travels to Miami, New York and Marbella to meet influencers who have been reshaping young men's ideas about masculinity and fuelling a resurgence of the men's rights movement. Throughout the equal parts interesting and disturbing documentary, Theroux meets with Harrison Sullivan (AKA HS Tikky Tokky), Myron Gaines, Nicolas Kenn De Balinthazy (AKA Sneako), Justin Waller and Ed Matthews, as he immerses himself in their "ecosystem" while each of them present their own interpretations of traditional gender roles and values. As much as Theroux challenges the individuals on their views, questions have arisen surrounding the ethics of platforming their voices while holding them to account. During a recent Q&A ahead of the documentary's release, Theroux admitted he took issue with the term "platform" in the context of Inside the Manosphere, describing it as a "clumsy descriptor of the different ways in which you can feature someone in a programme". He said: "You could have someone on a podcast and say, 'Just tell me what you think for an hour.' Or you can put them in a documentary and work really hard to give it a sense of context, of proportion, and push back with appropriate questions, which is obviously what I think we do." Theroux noted that a programme such as this one, about people creating disturbing content, couldn't exist without featuring "what the content is and why it's horrific". He added: "So I think it's appropriate for the film to feature moments judiciously in which they express the version of what they really believe."

encoded: Louis Theroux is stepping into the 'manosphere' in his first feature-length documentary for Netflix. The documentary, now available to watch on Netflix, follows the documentarian as he travels across the globe to meet content creators at the extreme end of the manosphere. Visiting the US and Spain, Theroux meets Harrison Sullivan (AKA HS Tikky Tokky), Myron Gaines, Nicolas Kenn De Balinthazy (AKA Sneako), Justin Waller and Ed Matthews – all of whom present their own ideas on traditional gender roles and values. Throughout the documentary, Theroux mentions one man quite often: Andrew Tate. Friends to some of the aforementioned creators, Tate is a former professional kickboxer who gained notoriety for his controversial position within the manosphere, but does not appear in the Netflix film despite being approached. During a Q&A following a screening of Inside the Manosphere, Theroux explained: "Access is critical. I sometimes joke I'm like a vampire, I have to be invited in. Unless you can talk to someone, then you might as well do with archives or something. "The whole point of me in this context is that I can talk to people and hopefully get something different out of them as an interviewer and filmmaker." Theroux noted a point when developing the documentary where they thought Tate may appear for an interview, sharing: "I had a long back and forth with Andrew Tate, voice notes and just weird peacock flexing from both of us, probably, and that didn't kind of go anywhere." He continued: "I think I felt like the world was big enough and there were enough personalities there that we would find people that we needed. And it wasn't easy." View Green Video on the source website As seen in the documentary, following interviews with Theroux some of the contributors would become slightly reserved, unsure if they should continue – something director Adrian Choa could attest to. Reflecting on filming the series, Choa said: "It was kind of, in a way, operating behind enemy line…

encoded: A brand new factual series is making its way to 5, following actors Samuel West and Adrian Edmondson head off on weekend adventures to spot and celebrate Britain's beautiful birds. Sam & Ade Go Birding will follow Samuel (All Creatures Great & Small) and Adrian (A Spy Among Friends) on a spectacular birdwatching quest across the British Isles. Birding has been a long-standing passion for West, having recorded his sightings for 20 years and has now seen over 400 British species, and is always eager to add more to his list. As for Edmondson, he's rather bird-curious. Despite living in the countryside for more than two decades, Ade is frustrated not knowing more about the birds around him and now wants to learn with his enthusiastic friend - so long as they can stop for lunch, stay in a nice cottage and have the odd pint along the way. Samuel West shared: "Watching birds is a simple pleasure. At heart, it's an invitation to connect with the natural world. All you need is a desire to look, listen and enjoy. A pair of binoculars helps; a friend to share it with makes it even better (especially when they’re as much fun as Adrian Edmondson). "I’m thrilled that we get to invite the 5 audience along with us on our travels; they've already proved how tasteful and clever they are by liking All Creatures Great and Small so much. Welcome to the gentle art of noticing." Meanwhile, Adrian Edmonson added: "I don’t know how I got to be this old without knowing more about birds. It feels like a huge hole in my education. Sam is going to fill me in. And… we get to go to the pub!" Across three weekend adventures, West and Edmondson will travel to West Cornwall in search of Cornish choughs, waders and transatlantic visitors blown hundreds of miles off course; to North Norfolk, on a wild goose chase for brent and pink-footed geese; and finally, to the Somerset Levels, where they stake out kingfishers, egrets and the elusive bittern.

The show, which began as a hugely popular and successful BBC Radio 4 and BBC Sounds podcast of the same name, focuses on Mosley’s theory that small changes can have a big impact on your wellbeing. Tragically, only two episodes of the series were completed before the journalist and broadcaster was found dead in June 2024 after embarking on a walk on the Greek island of Symi. The new series, which is coming to BBC One and iPlayer later this month, will see the trio follow in Mosley’s footsteps to offer tips that could help us all live healthier lives.

encoded: This article first appeared in Radio Times magazine. There are, Alexander Armstrong reminds us in his Channel 5 travelogue, 1.4 billion people in India. And, he tells Radio Times, “I gave it a good shot at meeting them all.” Clearly, he’s a man who’s covered the ground. Here are his most memorable moments. Must-see: Tigers We saw all sorts of amazing creatures on this trip: elephants blocking our way on the roads, macaques who’ve learnt to steal mobile phones and only return them in exchange for a bag of crisps – and not any old packet, either; they want a proper grab bag. But the truly astonishing thing to glimpse is a tiger, which we saw at Bandipur reserve (bandipurtr.in). Their power, their muscles, their teeth, the way they pad… they’re beautiful but they’re also exciting. Even their “camouflage” is like flame: it’s like watching red-hot lava against the ice of Reykjavik. And these tigers aren’t cosseted. They’re finding their own food – and it’s not grab bags. Must-do: Cremation One of the experiences that will live with me for ever, scarred onto my retina, is going to the ghats [stepped embankments] in Delhi. I’m 55, and I’d never seen a dead body before – but then, on these steps beside the river, you can’t move for dead bodies, and they’re beautiful. They’re laid out in resplendent robes, with endless prayers and rituals enacted around them, then the pyre is built up, and liquids are poured on – some sacred, some that I think are actually an aid to burning, squeezed out of a tube like you’d get from the garage for your barbecue – and people stand around to watch. We were very sweetly invited to film one by the second or third cousin of the deceased, but then one of the dead person’s sons turned round and said, “What the hell are you doing? Go away!” so we had to quickly reverse out of that. Must-buy: Emeralds There’s a place called the Gem Palace in Jaipur that’s a must-visit even if jewels aren’t a must-buy for you (gempalace.com). It was a total joy being…

My daughter died in the Dunblane shooting in 1996 – here’s why we must keep resisting the gun lobby

description: Mick North reflects on how grief drove a citizens’ campaign that transformed Britain’s gun laws.
encoded: This article first appeared in Radio Times magazine. On the morning of 13 March 1996, a man armed with four handguns and ammunition – all legally held – walked into a Scottish primary school. He used one of his pistols to kill 16 infant children and their teacher. My five-year-old daughter Sophie was one of those victims. Other children and adults were seriously injured. Those awful events at Dunblane Primary School 30 years ago, at a time when school shootings were almost unheard of, sent shockwaves around the world. Questions were raised about the need to reform our gun laws, but would the government, with its close links to the gun lobby, take action? It seemed unlikely. It was the people – ordinary citizens and the families of the Dunblane victims – who responded. Our campaign resulted in landmark change to Britain’s gun laws, including a total ban on the private ownership of handguns. The story of that success is told in a new BBC documentary, in which some of us who participated in that hard-fought campaign reflect on what happened. I have no doubt that what we did has saved lives. While school shootings occur all too often elsewhere, especially in the US, there has never been another in Britain. Tightening of firearms legislation has ensured that the level of gun violence we experience remains low in comparison with other industrialised nations. Gun crime has decreased significantly since the turn of the century. In most recent years there have been fewer than 30 gun homicides annually in Great Britain; that’s well below the number of victims murdered with guns every day in America. Most, but sadly not all, of our children are spared the lockdown drills that have become a traumatic but routine part of US school life. The guns used in mass shootings are almost always legally held. With the odd exception, British politicians are now happy to say how proud they are of our strict gun laws and how much they have contributed to making this a safer country. It makes…

The naturalist and broadcaster has spent the best part of his career urging anyone who will listen to take a closer look - whether it be at nature, science or our own impact on the planet. And now, in his new documentary Greenwashed, directed by Mexican physician-turned-filmmaker Sofía Pineda Ochoa, Packham wants viewers to take yet another closer look, but this time at the environmental movement itself. "Well, Sofía invited me," Packham told Radio Times regarding how he became involved in the almost three-hour long film. "Sofía and I share an interest in plant-based living for a multitude of reasons, and so it was that, and then thinking more broadly about the aims and objectives of the film, the population side is something that I touched upon before I made a programme for the BBC called 7.7 Billion People and Counting." Greenwashed takes aim at some of the widely accepted ideas of modern environmentalism, but asks a difficult question: Are today's "green solutions" really solving the crisis or distracting us from it? The documentary has already been broadcast across 40 public and cultural television channels in 10 Latin American countries, including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia and Uruguay, and is now freely available to watch on YouTube. And for Packham, that accessibility is paramount.

"Think about those issues, have those conversations, and therefore instigate the processes of positive change. And the fact that it's on YouTube, accessible to everyone for nothing, is really important, because for me, that's essentially public service broadcasting." The film features contributions from leading scientists and thinkers, including Sir Partha Dasgupta, William Rees, Dave Goulson and Clair…

In what has been described as a "fascinating" six part series three years in the making, Force of Nature will reveal how nature is fighting back against today's extreme weather. Told through dramatic and character-led storytelling, the series captures nature's resilience in the face of hurricanes, floods, droughts and wildfires - showcasing the ferocity of earth's forces and the ingenuity of animal survival. Andrew Lincoln said: "Force of Nature is unlike any series I have ever worked on before. The team have done an excellent job at capturing the breathtaking wildlife in all its glory. To see these animals up close and personal is a privilege, and a real insight into the battles nature endures every day. The show captures what other wildlife series have not, as we reveal the real impact the weather has on the world’s creatures." From chimpanzees in Senegal to sea otters in California and 40,000 Caribbean flamingos to Arctic polar bears, the stunning series brings to life the trials and tribulations of the animal world. ITV factual controller, Jo Clinton Davis, commented: "We are excited to bring such a groundbreaking and insightful series to ITV focusing on the ever changing world of the animal kingdom, shot so beautifully by Plimsoll Productions. "The mammoth task of filming for three years across all manners of dangerous terrain is no mean feat and the narration by Andrew Lincoln brings to life what is a fascinating piece of television." Force of Nature is part of ITV's commitment to the climate content pledge, in which the channel signed in 2021 alongside other major UK streamers and broadcasters. The pledge signals a commitment to include programmes in our content line-up which helps audiences understand climate-related issues and inspire greener choices.

The clip shows Sir Ian McKellen playing Lowry, with the acclaimed actor lip-syncing to previously unheard audio tapes of the artist's voice. In the clip, Lowry can be heard talking about selling his first painting at the age of 34 in an interview with a researcher called Angela. Both voices are lip-synced, with McKellen playing Lowry, sat in a chair with a plate of food on his lap, and Annabel Smith playing Angela, sat opposite him. You can watch the full clip above right now. The tapes featured in the documentary were recorded in the final four years of the artist's life, although the conversation charts his entire life. The synopsis for the documentary, which will commemorate the 50th anniversary of Lowry's death, says: "This immersive documentary will foreground the touching, charming exchange between the enigmatic Lowry and his often surprising interviewer, a young researcher called Angela, played by Annabel Smith. "But Lowry’s personal narrative also tells a bigger story, of a seismically changing Greater Manchester, where he lived, worked and painted so prolifically." On playing Lowry, and how it shaped his understanding of the man, McKellen said: "LS Lowry has throughout my lifetime, I think, been the most popular painter in the United Kingdom. So, it's natural that people should be interested in the man as well as his considerable body of work. "But he didn't give many interviews and those that he did on-record are rather stilted, in that he seems to have worked out his answers in advance. "I think the main impression [in these unheard interviews] we get is of a man who is happy to be answering questions. He doesn't feel that Angela is intrusive in any way. In fact, he clearly likes being in her company and only occasionally is he wrong-footed as she delves a bit closer into matters that he perha…

Mountbatten-Windsor, who had his titles and honours removed in November 2025, was arrested by Thames Valley Police on 19 February on suspicion of misconduct in public office and has since been released under investigation.

"The man remains in police custody at this time. We will not be naming the arrested man, as per national guidance.

With such an illustrious career and constant projects to keep him busy, there is something that continues to irk the celebrity chef that he urges those in the culinary industry to come together and change. Speaking to Radio Times to promote his new Netflix series Being Gordon Ramsay, the chef reflected on how the industry has changed over the years, specifically the last five years since the pandemic. "I think it is so much more difficult now for the younger generation to sort of step out and stand alone two feet in businesses," he explained. "The cost of living is hard enough, rent rates, the amount of businesses that are failing. And then, of course, it's a tough climate out there, and so I don't want them to become disillusioned. This is one of the most exciting countries to be in with food." And Ramsay remains hopeful that within the next 12 to 18 months, "we will absolutely be standing strong with some of the best countries in Europe", but it won't be an immediate change. Ramsay continued: "We will bounce back strong and there will be that whole sort of evolution of these new restaurants opening up, [but] right now the climate is difficult and so I think, if anything, they just need to be a little bit more patient today and continue on that path. "But most importantly, keep those dreams, keep that flame burning and it will happen because it is a long race. It's a marathon, it's not a sprint. So we'll get out of this." But with such optimism, there's one thing that Ramsay admits "pisses" him off. Prior to our interview, Ramsay attended the 2026 Michelin Guide in which he maintained his three stars at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay – but while there, he heard a statistic he wasn't pleased with. He told Radio Times: "I was at the Michelin Awards on Monday and the stats of 8 p…

description: The broadcaster will celebrate his landmark birthday in May.
encoded: To celebrate Sir David Attenborough's 100th birthday on 8 May, the BBC has commissioned a slate of new series and archival material to showcase the finest programmes from his seven-decade career. The new programmes to air in a week-long celebration of his work and legacy include Making Life on Earth: Attenborough's Greatest Adventure, Secret Garden and David Attenborough's 100 Years on Planet Earth. Special episodes from some of Attenborough's most beloved series will be taken from the archive and will air on BBC One in the week leading up to his birthday, as well as a dedicated BBC iPlayer collection showcasing more than 40 series presented by Attenborough. Making Life on Earth: Attenborough’s Greatest Adventure features new interviews with Attenborough and the original production team as they reflect on the making of the groundbreaking series Life on Earth. The synopsis reads: "With fascinating insights, they reveal the highs and lows of filming the series during a truly exciting moment in television history, when global jet travel and colour filming were still in their infancy. Along the way, the crew encountered multiple challenges, including a coup in the Comoros, being shot at in Rwanda and threats from Saddam Hussein’s army in Iraq. View oEmbed on the source website "Broadcast in 1979 and watched by 500 million people worldwide, it confirmed David’s reputation as the most successful and influential wildlife filmmaker of our time. His astonishing encounter with gorillas in the mountains of Rwanda for this series is frequently voted one of the top TV moments of all time." Elsewhere is Secret Garden, a new primetime series for BBC One and iPlayer, in which Attenborough reveals the hidden worlds and remarkable wildlife thriving within Britain's gardens. Across five episodes – and five gardens in the UK – Attenborough "reveals the lives of the often charming, occasionally daring, always secretive animals that inhabit the hidden world right on our doorsteps". The s…

description: "We need more Tillys in the world."
encoded: Out of six, only one of Gordon Ramsay's children is following in their father's footsteps, but she'll be doing it without his help. Since graduating from university, Tilly Ramsay who has been the face of Dish It Out and Matilda and The Ramsay Bunch, is making a further move into the culinary industry and is being trained at Ballymaloe Cookery School, which came as a surprise to her father. Her move to Dublin and subsequent training at Ballymaloe is explored in new Netflix series Being Gordon Ramsay. Ramsay is immensely proud of her career choice but admits it was "painful" that Tilly chose to be trained elsewhere. "It's so good to have another female in the industry," Ramsay told Radio Times. "I've done nothing but support incredible females over the last 25 years, and to see them at the very top of their profession. "Tilly's just got one foot on the ladder now. So if that beginning of that journey is where she is now, that's exciting. God knows what's gonna happen in five, 10 years time for her." View Green Video on the source website Ramsay added that Tilly not wanting to be trained by him and saving up for the Ballymaloe fees "was painful for me". "That hurt me as a dad. But then I had so much respect for her that she didn't want to depend on me and, 'No dad, I'm training elsewhere'." He told Radio Times: "All of a sudden she's off to Ireland and that was like, 'wow'. Didn't ask, didn't check up, just went, did it and snuck off. And so the least I could do was buy her first set of whites. And that was quite a moment." Ramsay added that Tilly is "feisty" – so much so that her nickname is "feisty Tilly". "She's passionate. And even yesterday she was feeding her starter and making the most incredible bread before she went off to work," he said. "And 23, obsessed, excited. We need more Tillys in the world." Being Gordon Ramsay is available to watch on Netflix now. Sign up for Netflix from £5.99 a month. Netflix is also available on Sky Glass and Virgin Media Stream. …

Gordon Ramsay is desperate for fans to see 'the real him’ as he talks "intrusive but brutally honest" Netflix series

description: "This is real and in many ways, I forget the camera's there."
encoded: Gordon Ramsay has been a mainstay on television screens for decades, taking audiences inside restaurants worldwide from Hell's Kitchen to Kitchen Nightmares, but nothing has been quite as personal as his new Netflix series, Being Gordon Ramsay. The six-part series, which Ramsay has executive produced, follows the celebrity chef as he embarks on his most ambitious project yet, the opening of five culinary experiences in one of London's tallest buildings, 22 Bishopsgate. But the series also offers an emotional glance at the celebrity chef, as he delves into his childhood and fatherhood. But, with over 90 restaurants worldwide and 22 Bishopsgate being perhaps his most stressful project yet, why was this personal venture the project he wanted people to see? With the question posed to the chef, Ramsay told Radio Times: "I think for me, no one quite understands just how chaotic a chef's life is. And so to get that kind of insight of breakfast, lunch, and dinner, coupled with the pressure of what was going on in terms of 22 Bishopsgate, I was desperate to show not just the real me, but just the connect with the family and the amazing bond we have." Elaborating further on having the cameras follow his every move, Ramsay admitted it was "intrusive but brutally honest". "And it was incredibly moving because they caught me at a very difficult, tough, demanding year," he added. View Green Video on the source website Along for the ride is not only Gordon, but his daughters Tilly and Holly Ramsay also feature predominantly throughout as well as his wife, Tana, the latter of whom he stresses he "couldn't have done any of this without". "And so when we're on, we're on and when we're off, we're off," Ramsay told Radio Times. "And so it was understanding that level of disruption when we're off. But we're all together, whether we're in Cornwall or in London, we're all together. So she was excited, happy, and I think it was really nice to see just how tough she is in this documentary."…

Gordon Buchanan: "Coming from such a small community, I'm almost embarrassed by my achievements"

description: Gordon Buchanan’s difficult home life forced him outdoors – and he’s never looked back.
encoded: This article first appeared in Radio Times magazine. A pride of lions – two lionesses and six or seven, almost-grown up, cubs – are gorging on a zebra carcass in the Okavango Delta. They have been without food for several days. Astonishing close-ups show the longed-for meat disappearing into the jaws of each lion. Drone shots capture the moment when the pride has had its fill. Tummies full, the big cats roll over, sated. If you want to see lions in a state of bliss, Big Cats 24/7 is for you. Wildlife film-maker Gordon Buchanan, who grew up on the Isle of Mull, is part of the BBC team following lion, leopard and cheetah across Botswana, day and night, as the title promises. The Scottish cameraman is at the top of his game, having shot more than 32 natural-history programmes, a number of which he’s also presented. In 2020 he was appointed MBE for his services to conservation. Is he as satisfied as those lions? “Coming from such a small community, I’m almost embarrassed by my achievements. I never set out to prove anything, bar to myself,” he says. Buchanan didn’t have an easy, or privileged start in life. Born just outside Glasgow, the third of four children, the family moved to Mull when Buchanan was a small child, after his mother separated from his father. They lived in a caravan and money was tight; his mother held down three weekly jobs. “She had no support. There were hugs and we were loved, but the rest… you had to make up for yourself. We had a sort of feral existence.” School was no help. “I think today I would be defined as dyslexic,” he says. “I struggled through school, not grasping things. I could skive my way through it and I wasn’t expected to pass anything, bar woodwork and art.” Buchanan acknowledges that being a natural-history presenter from a working-class background is unusual. “Historically, the only people who were naturalists were the clergy or monied classes,” he says. “There is an assumption that I’m middle-class because in the media, and in …
