The 46th series of this remarkable but harrowing documentary strand continues to shine a light into the world’s darkest corners. We’re in Haiti, where gangs are taking over. One of the many awful consequences is the collapse of healthcare.

Grand Tours of Scotland’s Rivers

Prepare to be extremely jealous of Paul Murton as he tracks the River Tay all the way to the Scottish coastline – via an ancient oak and a monster salmon, no less – and triggers our wanderlust in the process.
