TV Recordings:

Title: Tales from the National Parks
Episode: Loch Lomond and The Trossachs
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 - divided communities prepared to fight
in order to preserve their right to enjoy the countryside.
Richard spends a year in the small remote community of
Tyndrum, where gold fever has gripped the residents. The
Loch Lomond Park Authority will decide if the goldmine gets
permission and there are lots of organisations who think
Scotland’s first goldmine is an abhorrent idea. The
villagers are adamant it is the only way prosperity can be
brought to their struggling community and are determined to
get it approved. But who wins is down to the Park board
members who are due to vote on the mine at a hearing in the
village hall

Title: Young Apprentice
Episode: Floristry Business
Description: Ten young candidates remain to face another challenging task
in Lord Sugar’s business school of hard knocks. An early
morning delivery of a bouquet of flowers to the
candidates’ house holds the clue to the third task. Lord
Sugar wants his remaining candidates to set up two rivalry
floristry businesses. Both teams will go head to head in a
challenge to win business from three corporate clients with
very specific floral requirements, and they’ll sell direct
to the public too.
Broadcast: 7 Nov 2011, 21:00 (60 mins)

Title: The Food Hospital
Description: Health series examining the science behind using food as
medicine. Patients are invited to attend the Food Hospital,
where they are prescribed specific food treatment programmes
to find out if their problems can be alleviated or cured by
the food they eat. The doctors meet Karen and her
six-year-old son, Callum, whose lives are both blighted by
psoriasis. Professional singer Sophie suffers from such
severe acid reflux that, if it continues, it could spell the
end of her career. Sixteen-year-old Rianna is looking for an
answer to her distressing and unexplained hair loss. And can
obese 38-year-old father Ian reverse his dangerously fatty
liver through food, and increase his life expectancy? Also,
Dr Pixie McKenna investigates the truth about vitamin
supplements
Broadcast: 8 Nov 2011, 20:00 (60 mins)

Title: True Stories: The Flaw
Description: Documentary looking at the underlying causes of the global
financial crisis. In 2008, Alan Greenspan commented that he
had found a flaw in his economic model of how the world
works. He had placed too much faith in the self-correcting
power of free markets. In a system based on the
unsustainable lending necessary to fuel continued spending,
the world found to its cost what happens when that credit
bubble bursts. The programme draws on interviews with
leading world economists and examines how to avoid the same
problem happening again

Title: Peter Jones: How We Made Our Millions
Description: Dragons’ Den star Peter Jones meets two of the country’s
most well known and successful entrepreneurs to get into the
DNA of what made them millionaires. Peter gets to grips with
Richard Reed - co-founder of Innocent, the smoothie company
with a 165 million pound turnover, and Michelle Mone, the
self-made inspiration behind the multimillion pound Ultimo
lingerie business. He finds two very different characters as
he takes them back to their childhoods, examines their
personalities, studies their business models, asks what they
are like to work for, and discovers what it was that drove
them to be entrepreneurs. Having built up his own
multimillion pound empire, Peter knows how to get inside the
minds of these inspirational business leaders who don’t
take no for an answer, as he attempts to find out if there
really is a blueprint for success

Title: Analysis
Description: Do Leaders Make a Difference? Individual leadership is seen
as the key to change in politics or business. But how much
can a prime minister or media mogul, for example, really
influence events? Is the importance of collective action and
attitudes being overlooked? Michael Blastland investigates
