Title: The
Men Who Made Us Spend
Description: In
the second of this three-part series, Jacques reveals how
fear
remains one of the most powerful drivers of our
spending.
Visiting a neuroscience lab, Jacques hears from a consumer
psychologist about how our brains are much more responsive
to negative
than to positive stimuli. He also meets some
experts who have turned this knowledge into an art form,
helping manufacturers make billions from our anxieties and
insecurities.
At the remote chateau of French
anthropologist Clotaire
Rapaille, Jacques learns how our sense of fear drives us in
ways
many of us do not understand - and how Rapaille's
insights have helped companies sell us everything from SUVs
to
cigarettes.
At
the Beverley Hills pad of multimillionaire marketer Rohan
Oza,
he hears how Oza's connections to celebrities helped
propel VitaminWater into the soft drink stratosphere,
despite the fact that the product's health claims have been
called into question.
Jacques also confronts the men who say they are combating
our most deep-seated fear - of age
and decline. In Las
Vegas, he mingles with the doctors and businessmen attending
a
global conference aimed at selling us ways to stay young
and
healthy, challenging them to justify their claims for
the
anti-aging business that has made them rich.

Title:
Clothes to Die For
Description:
International investigative documentary series. Survivors of
the
collapse in April 2013 of the Rana Plaza, an
eight-storey commerical building in Bangladesh, tell their
remarkable stories. Many were rescued by ordinary local
people who risked their own lives crawling into the rubble
to
save them. But Clothes To Die For also reveals the
incredible growth of the Bangladeshi garment industry and
the greed and high-level corruption that led
to the Rana
Plaza tragedy. Bangladesh has become the second largest
producer of clothes in the world after China, transforming
the
country and providing employment for millions of people,
most
of them young women. As the personal stories of
survivors reveal, in Bangladesh even a wage as low as £1.50
a
day can be completely life-changing and many don't want
that opportunity taken away.
Producing goods for several
British and European high street stores, the tragedy at the
Rana
Plaza sent shock waves around the world about the
safety of the Bangladeshi garment industry
