| "The Rolling Stones - Rock Of Ages (DVD)" |
| "It seems hard to believe that the Rolling Stones have been around since the early sixties but the band show no signs of slowing down, even after a career that has spanned over 50 years. Rock of Ages charts the amazing story of what is arguably the greatest rock band in the world, chronicling their first ever gig at the Marquee Club on the 12th of July, 1962, the line-up changes, the famous rivalry between the Stones and the Beatles, the meteoric rise to fame (and notoriety) of the group as well as all the personal drama the band members themselves had to go through. From the earliest beginnings, when manager Andrew Olden was eager to present the Stones to the world as the antithesis of the family-friendly Beatles, trouble followed the band wherever it went, with numerous drug busts, in-fighting within the members of the group and the offstage antics with groupies leading to the newspaper headline: Would you let your sister go with the Rolling Stones? Brian Jones, one of the founders of the group, suffering from drug addiction, began to feel displaced and a decision was made to remove him from the band. Sadly Jones, not long after this event, was later found dead in his swimming pool in Sussex on 3rd July 1969. However since then The Stones, as they are affectionately known by fans around the world, have gone from strength to strength. In recent years, the Stones have concentrated on their live shows, still giving 100%. Jagger jokes that there aren t so many pairs of women s underpants thrown on stage these days; more Y-fronts he laughs. But that hasn t curbed their enthusiasm for touring, and while they enjoy playing live music, the Rolling Stones will keep on rolling, for years to come. The programme includes interviews with the band members.

| "The Rolling Stones: Totally Stripped (DVD)" |
| "Totally Stripped is a newly-revised version of the documentary that was originally made to coincide with the release of The Rolling Stones Stripped album released in November 1995. It tells the story of the two studio sessions and three live shows that made up the Stripped project. This followed the conclusion of the mammoth Voodoo Lounge tour and found The Stones reimagining tracks from their back catalogue in pared back versions alongside a couple of carefully chosen covers in the studio and doing smaller scale club gigs to showcase these versions, which was a marked contrast to the huge arenas and stadiums that had hosted the Voodoo Lounge tour. This new version of the documentary includes previously unseen footage and lays bare the inner workings of both The Rolling Stones and of some of their best loved tracks. Revealing, intimate and moving, Totally Stripped is unmissable.

| "Episode 1: First ImpressionsThe Royal is, in the 1960s, the local hospital for the North Yorkshire town of Elsinby. Its administrator T.J. Middleditch is a benevolent figure whilst the elderly matron is firm but fair with her nursing staff. Surgeon Mr. Rose is likely to light up his pipe whilst performing an operation and Dr. Jill Wetherill is a highly confident practitioner though she does come unstuck on a home visit and Ken the hospital porter comes a cropper trying to fit an aerial on the roof. Young doctor David Cheriton turns up for his first day at the Royal and is surprised not only at how ill-equipped it seems to be but because noone was expecting him so early. Episode 2: Second Time AroundA motor-bike crash brings a cruel end to a romantic escapade for a young couple but elsewhere Matron assists Dr. Ormerod in bringing marital harmony to patient Brian Lynson and his wife. The porters have to deal with a rodent infestation problem and unwisely turn to patient, Aidensfield wheeler-dealer Claude Greengrass for advice, though he keeps hallucinating that spiders are crawling all over him. Episode 3: Coffin FitJill Wetherill comes to learn the folly of jumping to the wrong conclusion after she suspects that older Dr. Alway has misdiagnosed a patient. David Cheriton proves himself at a car accident despite Dr. Ormerod's fears that he may have been affected by an earlier crash and Greengrass arouses the porters' suspicions after asking them to store a coffin, supposedly containing his late sister, in the hospital. Episode 4: Sister of MercyJill Wetherill helps the Heatons, an elderly couple, whilst Sister Brigid,a secular Irish nun working as a nurse at the Royal, discovers an abandoned baby which she believes is linked to missing teenager Susan. Whilst a Russian sailor is admitted to the Royal Greengrass attempts to play the system to ensure a longer stay for himself,whilst an official hospital inspection looms. Episode 5: Immediate CareDavid Cheriton is faced with the unenviable task of telling young Francesca that she has only a short time to live, though it does lead to a wedding. Efficiency-mad Nigel Harper ruffles feathers with cost-cutting ideas but the arrival of a famous jockey as a patient in the hospital means that the basic fund-raising scheme of having a raffle to help hospital coffers gives way, thanks to Greengrass, to having a flutter on the horses. Episode 6: Kiss and TellAidensfield copper Ventress comes to the Royal for a bunion removal and sees a supposed amnesiac, who is not what he claims. Doctors Wetherill and Ormerod get close at Cheriton's house-warming but Middleditch is faced with the news that the hospital may be forced to close and dreads having to tell the staff. Episode 7: CrashIt's Dr. Alway's last day at the Royal before retirement but he,and the rest of the staff,are kept busy, following a bus crash, one of the wounded being Dr. Ormerod's wife Caroline. Whilst Cheriton gets cosy with Staff Nurse Taylor, Bernard Hussey, the NHS administrator, gets in everyone's way and Greengrass is re-admitted, apparently suffering from malaria.

| "The Russian Revolution in Colour / Fascism in Colour" |
| "Two viewings of colour documentaries looking at two of the most noteworthy political movements in the first half of the 20th century. 'Russian Revolution in Colour' goes on to explain the story of the 1917 rebellion which landed power in the hands of Lenin and the Russian Communist Party. 'Fascism in Colour' looks at the upsurge to control of the Italian fascist leader Benito Mussolini and his affiliation with Adolf Hitler. The Russian Revolution in Colour: Cold, starving and disheartened, the Russian factory workers of Petrograd acted a protest about an absence of bread during the winter of 1917. Unbelievably, this minor show of discontent showed to be the compound for rebellion in Russia and brought about the resignation of Tsar Nicholas II, concluding centuries of imperial rule. A Provisional Government was formed but a captivating revolutionary called Vladimir Lenin was keen to make a revolution of his own. Using histrionic re-enactments and colourised archive material, this film communicates the story of one of history's most astonishing social movements. Fascism in Colour: Showing an enthralling yet alarming account of one man's craving for power, this programme explains the story of Benito Mussolinis totalitarian dictatorship of Italy and the coalition with Adolf Hitler that resulted in the death of 55 million people. Created on descriptions of events at the time, letters, diary entries, secret memos and telephone taps, this is a truly extraordinary record of the man who eventually became Hitler's pawn. Rare archival colour footage keeps Il Duce's cruel rule of viciousness, pressure and anxiety very much alive."
