- Caught in the StormsD1
Caught in the StormsChris Choi takes a look at the extreme weather conditions faced by Britain in the past month, during which many parts of the country were swamped by heavy rainfall, widespread flooding and high winds. Why do we seem unable to cope when storms hit? Chris talks to those who have been affected multiple times and speaks to experts to discover if the changing weather could affect the value and insurability of thousands of homes. Has the time come to rethink our attitude towards the weather as these supposedly rare flooding events become increasingly frequent? - The Rise of the E-CigaretteD3
The Rise of the E-CigaretteIn just seven years E-cigarettes have grown from an obscure Chinese import to being at the centre of one of the biggest public health debates for a generation. Chris Choi looks at what is in them, why some countries have banned them while others have welcomed them as a lifesaver, and how they could be regulated in the future. - To Diet or Not to Diet?
D4To Diet or Not to Diet?Jonathan Maitland takes a look at the diet industry which is currently worth two billion pounds a year, yet ironically as a nation we just keep getting fatter. The weight loss industry is big business, but do these diets really work in the long term? As over half the nation resolves to lose weight this year, the programme looks at how we diet and what can be done to tip the scales in our favour. - School's OutD11
School's OutFiona Foster investigates the growing problem of parents taking their children out of school during term time to take advantage of cheaper holiday prices, despite the threat of fines. Recent rule changes by the Department of Education mean parents face fines, court action and even a possible jail sentence. Travel companies put up their prices during school holidays by on average 25 to 30 per cent, sometimes more. Many parents are opting to pay the fine to go on a more affordable holiday - but is the money saved worth the potential cost to their child's education? - Britain's Young DrinkersD12

They then undergo a series of medical checks to determine the impact on their health - with alarming results. - Is Britain Christian?D23
Is Britain Christian?David Cameron believes Britain is a Christian country, but these days less than half of us describe ourselves as Christian, and only 5% of us go to church on a weekly basis. In ‘Is Britain Christian?’ Tonight asks if the Prime Minister is right, and if it matters if he’s not? Should we accept that Christianity needs to take a back seat in a modern secular society, or will some communities lose more than bricks and mortar? - The Truth Behind the Bargain Dog TradeD24
The Truth Behind the Bargain Dog TradePuppy business is big business. And with the pet dog population rising by half a million a year, not all come from a responsible source. Large-scale puppy breeding is a multi-million pound industry – but are the rules enforced tightly enough? - Do You Let Your Kids Play Out?
D25Do You Let Your Kids Play Out?The school holidays are under way and millions of youngsters are celebrating a summer of downtime, but research spanning 40 years reveals a dramatic loss of children's independence, with many parents worried about the dangers of allowing them to play outdoors.
