TV Recordings:

Title: Tales from the National Parks
Episode: The Lake District
Description: The National Parks, designated 60 years ago as places for
everyone, are Britain’s most treasured landscapes, but
they are increasingly becoming battlefields. Filmmaker
Richard Macer spent a year amid conflicts in three different
parks on a journey to discover who they are really for. In
each park the stories are different, but there is something
that unites them all - fiercely divided communities who are
prepared to fight in order to preserve their right to enjoy
the countryside. In each film Macer has secured access to
the National Park Authority - an organisation which looks
after the landscapes and decides upon planning matters. In
the Lake District, entrepreneur Mark Weir wants to build a
giant zip-wire ride from the top of a beautiful, remote
mountain. But what chance does it have of getting permission
when there are over 400 objectors to it? Tragically, Mark is
killed in an accident during filming and never lives to see
if his zip-wire becomes a reality

Title: Young Apprentice
Episode: Frozen Treats
Description: Lord Sugar is on the hunt for a Young Apprentice, as the
business-based reality show returns. Chosen from thousands
of applicants, twelve candidates aged between 16 and 17
compete for a £25,000 fund that will be tailor-made to
kick-start a business career. In this first episode, the
boys are pitted against the girls as Lord Sugar sets his
first task: to make a new range of frozen treats, ice
creams, sorbets and frozen yogurts, and then sell them
directly to the public. Under the watchful eyes of Lord
Sugar’s trusted aides Karren Brady and Nick Hewer, it is
not long before everyone begins to feel the heat.
Relationships become chilly and, as dreams of success melt
away, the losing team faces a frosty reception in the
boardroom, before Lord Sugar utters his infamous last words:
"You’re fired"
