Yukon Rescue

From Whitehorse to the remote towns at the edge of the Arctic, the Yukon is one of the most challenging places on Earth to live... let alone be a first responder.

But someone has to do the job.

Yukon Rescue is a heart-pounding docuseries about the Yukoners who answer the call to keep people safe in the rugged Canadian North.

Featuring breaking cases from wildfire to search and rescue, animal services to highways, these frontline workers go toe-to-toe with Mother Nature - battling lethal temperatures, vast distances, scarce supplies and an unforgiving landscape to get the job done.

In the series premiere: Frigid temperatures wreak havoc on Dawson City, putting the fire department in danger.

An avalanche shuts down the Klondike Highway, and a tow operator races to find a driver who plunged off-road and into an icy river.

The Chelsea Detective 3

London's Chelsea neighbourhood is a beautiful borough for beautiful people, but it has a dark underside of deception, violence, greed... and murder.

Bodies have a way of showing up, and things are rarely what they seem.

The upcoming season sees DI Max Arnold and DS Layla Walsh delve once more into the darker side of Chelsea that lurks beneath its glossy façade.

Season 3 finds Max and Layla investigating the discovery of an ex-soldier's body in an allotment, the brutal murder of an antiques dealer, and the mysterious case of a climate scientist found dead in a stolen car.

But, while Max remains adept at solving crimes, things are far from straightforward at home.

After all their ups and downs, Max and his estranged wife, Astrid are now trying couples therapy in a bid to revive their relationship and unpack where it all went wrong for them.
