Episode 1 • Aug 18, 2014
Fat Dogs
Britain faces an epidemic of dog obesity. As many as half of all dogs in the UK may be fat. Using surveillance filming and cutting-edge technology, and working with some of the world's leading experts, Dogs: Their Secret Lives discovers why our dogs are getting fatter and investigates what can be done to help them. Following in the paw steps of three fat pooches - Chancer the Cavalier King Charles spaniel, Molly the bulldog and Cassie the Labrador - the programme reveals how dogs can manipulate us into feeding them and how weight problems can lead to far more serious health issues. Mark Evans explores the challenges facing the 21st-century dog owner and finds out if a scientific approach to food and exercise could help our dogs shed the pounds.
Episode 2 • Aug 25, 2014
Dogs Behaving Badly
Some dogs are hard to handle and when they show aggression it can be a serious issue for owners. Using surveillance filming, working closely with the UK's leading behaviourists and exploring the latest science, Dogs: Their Secret Lives reveals what can make our dogs aggressive and how to treat them. The programme follows Layla the springer spaniel, Nash the cairn terrier and larger-than-life Great Dane Thor as they bark and growl their way through their daily lives, and finds out how our preconceptions about breed might be wrong and how understanding dog body language could prevent attacks. Mark Evans investigates this growing canine crisis. He meets wolves, finds out whether dogs can pick up on our emotions and takes a dog communication test to find out what can be done to help our more menacing pets.
Episode 3 • Sep 01, 2014
Difficult Dogs
It's not common to associate dogs with mental health issues but some of our pooches are displaying symptoms, from compulsive behaviours and chronic fears to unusual behaviour like traffic-chasing. Applying the latest technology, using surveillance filming and working with the UK's top behaviourists, Dogs: Their Secret Lives looks into the minds of our dogs and meets three troubled pets - Max, the spinning German shepherd, compulsive bus-chasing collie Biscuit, and Roxy the Staffordshire bull terrier, who's terrified of the great outdoors - to find out what could be at the root of their problems and how to help them. Mark Evans explores the latest brain scanning experiments, meets dogs with incredible learning abilities and finds out about the latest medications as he investigates the challenges facing the 21st-century dog.

Princess Diana: The Quiet Revolution

Princess Diana: The Quiet Revolution

No one in history has ever been so universally adored as Diana, Princess of Wales. In her short life, she captivated the world with her beauty, charm and limitless compassion. She challenged the century-old tradition of stoic Royal silence and brought a Queen and her people closer than ever before. The legacy of the people's princess still lives on two decades after her tragic and sudden death. It was her love of life, of people, of those less fortunate and of her children that saw her lead a quiet but powerful revolution that changed the British royal family, forever.
