Around the world, obesity levels are rising. More people are now overweight than undernourished. Jacques Peretti traces those responsible for revolutionising our eating habits

我们为什么要买东西？谁让这个世界变得无节制消费？他们如何做到这一点？调查记者雅克•佩雷蒂审视了无节制消费潮流背后的机制，得出了答案。原来，使这个世界变得无节制消费的元凶，并不是人们普遍认为的广告员和市场推广员，而是这诸多因素背后那些首先改变产品然后改变我们的人们。纪录片表明，长久以来，制造商都梦想着在消费者大脑中植入“升级”观念，从而让无限消费成为现实。他们首先瞄准未被开发的儿童市场，学习应用向儿童销售的方法，从而增加向成年人的销售。但是，那头最肥的能够带来现金的奶牛却来自恐惧——通过挖掘消费者的恐惧，制造商发现了一个对健康和安全产品有巨大需求的世界。

Meet the Romans
Professor Mary Beard looks beyond the stories of emperors, armies, guts and gore to meet the everyday people at the heart of Ancient Rome's vast empire We still live in the shadow of ancient Rome - a city at the heart of a vast empire that stretched from Scotland to Afghanistan, dominating the West for over 700 years. Professor Mary Beard puts aside the stories of emperors and armies, guts and gore, to meet the real Romans living at the heart of it all.

罗马庞培古城，历史上著名火山喷发的牺牲品之一。我们都知道那场灾难中受害者们遇难的经过，但本片关注另一个问题：他们的生活方式是什么样的？
剑桥大学教授、庞培历史研究专家Mary Beard从非同寻常的发现中搜集新的资料，从另一个的视角，为我们展现维苏威火山灾难性喷发前，庞培居民的生活。
Pompeii: one of the most famous volcanic eruptions in history. We know how its victims died, but this film sets out to answer another question - how did they live? Gleaning evidence from an extraordinary find, Cambridge professor and Pompeii expert Mary Beard provides new insight into the lives of the people who lived in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius before its cataclysmic eruption.
In a dark cellar in Oplontis, just three miles from the centre of Pompeii, 54 skeletons who didn't succumb to the torrent of volcanic ash are about to be put under the microscope. The remains will be submitted to a barrage of tests that will unlock one of the most comprehensive scientific snapshots of Pompeian life ever produced - and there are some big surprises in store.
Using the latest forensic techniques it is now possible to determine what those who perished in the disaster ate and drank, where they came from, what diseases they suffered, how rich they were, and perhaps, even more astonishingly, the details of their sex lives.
The way the remains were found in the cellar already provides an invaluable clue about the lives of the people they belonged to. On one side of the room were individuals buried with one of the most stunning hauls of gold, jewellery and coins ever found in Pompeii. On the other, were people buried with nothing. It looked the stark dividing line of a polarised ancient society: a room partitioned between super rich and abject poor. But on closer examination the skeletons reveal some surprises about life in Pompeii.

Adventurer and journalist Simon Reeve heads to Cuba to find a communist country in the middle of a capitalist revolution. Two years ago Cuba announced the most sweeping and radical economic reforms the country has seen in decades. From ending state rationing to cutting one million public-sector jobs, one of the last communist bastions in the world has begun rolling back the state on an unprecedented scale. Simon Reeve meets ordinary Cubans whose lives are being transformed, from the owners of fledgling businesses to the newly rich estate agents selling properties worth up to 750,000 pounds.
In this hour-long documentary for the BBC's award-winning This World strand, Simon gets under the skin of a colourful and vibrant country famous for its hospitality and humour and asks if this new economic openness could lead to political liberalisation in a totalitarian country with a poor human rights record. Will Cuba be able to maintain the positive aspects of its long isolation under socialism - low crime, top-notch education and one of the best health systems in the world - while embracing what certainly looks like capitalism? Is this the last chance to see Cuba before it becomes just like any other country?

Professor Stephen Hawking thinks the human species will have to populate a new planet within 100 years if it is to survive. With climate change, pollution, deforestation, pandemics and population growth, our own planet is becoming increasingly precarious.
Planet Earth has been home to humankind for over 200,000 years, but with a population of 7.5 billion and counting and limited resources, this planet might not support us forever.
In this landmark film Professor Hawking, alongside engineer and radio astronomy expert Professor Danielle George and a former student, Christophe Galfard, join forces to find out if, and how, humans can reach for the stars and relocate to different planets.
Travelling the globe, they meet top scientists, technologists and engineers who are working to answer our biggest questions: is there another planet out there that we could call home? How will we travel across the vast distances of space to get there? How will we survive the journey? And how will we set up a new human civilization on an alien world?
Taking in the latest advances in astronomy, biology and rocket technology from the Atacama Desert to the wilds of the Arctic, viewers will discover a whole world of cutting edge research. This programme shows that Professor Hawking's ambition isn't as fantastical as it sounds - and that science fiction is closer to science fact than we ever thought.

Dr Helen Czerski goes on a spectacular journey to the extremes of the temperature scale, where everyday laws of physics break down and a new world of scientific possibility begins.

霍雷萧·纳尔逊是英国海军史上最伟大的英雄。长久以来，他的形象都如同他在伦敦特雷法加广场的雕像一般，坚韧、英勇、冷酷。但事实上，他存留下的几百封亲笔书写的信件向我们揭露了真实的纳尔逊远比我们想象得更加复杂，也十分不同。

自从人类文明伊始酒精就被用作一种药物，但是关于酒精的科学似乎含糊不清而且充满了矛盾。我们对市售药品及其疗效相对比较熟悉，但是对其作用原理及对人体的影响却所知甚少。我们将调查有关酒精的证据，很多人认为每天适度饮酒对我们的身体健康不会产生太大影响，许多人认为每天少量饮酒其实对人体健康是有益的。而我们很多人喝酒不是这样，不是每天少量饮酒而是平时几乎滴酒不沾，到周末的时候才豪饮两三次；或者是邀上好友共进晚餐喝大量的葡萄酒；或者喝些鸡尾酒或烈酒。豪饮的危害到底有多大呢？我们马上来揭晓答案…

一連兩集，主持人Jimmy Doherty和Kate Quilton親自走訪世界各地，發掘五十個不同地方的餐單，比較各國餐單的不同之處，同時看看哪種餐單最健康、最吸引。原來在過去五十年裡，世界各地的飲食文化都有不少變化，亦大大影響人類的健康。選取了五十份不同的餐單之餘，又依據營養師的意見，將餐單以健康為指標排列成一至五十位。

IKEA is undoubtedly one of the world's most successful, enigmatic, and recognisable global brands. Last year nearly 800 million people in 49 countries visited its stores, which had a turnover of more than £30 billion.
In a major new three-part series, our cameras explore the world of IKEA, from the design studios to factories and stores, for the very first time.
Few companies can legitimately claim to shape the way we live today. Fewer still inspire a cult-like devotion in customers and employees alike. But IKEA is not like other companies.
The famously secretive Swedish furniture retailer is guided by the principle of creating 'the better everyday life for the many people'. But what is the secret to its success? How does the machine of IKEA affect the people who work for it, and how does its ruthlessly efficient business model affect the world?

Julius Caesar is the most famous Roman of them all: brutal conqueror, dictator and victim of a gruesome assassination on the Ides of March 44 BC. 2000 years on, he still shapes the world. He has given us some political slogans we still use today (Crossing the Rubicon), his name lives on in the month of July, and there is nothing new about Vladmir Putin's carefully cultivated military image and no real novelty in Donald Trump's tweets and slogans.
Mary Beard is on a mission to uncover the real Caesar, and to challenge public perception. She seeks the answers to some big questions. How did he become a one-man-ruler of Rome? How did he use spin and PR on his way to the top? Why was he killed? And she asks some equally intriguing little questions. How did he conceal his bald patch? Did he really die, as William Shakespeare put it, with the words Et tu, Brute on his lips? Above all, Mary explores his surprising legacy right up to the present day. Like it or not, Caesar is still present in our everyday lives, our language, and our politics. Many dictators since, not to mention some other less autocratic leaders, have learned the tricks of their trade from Julius Caesar.

In a brand new series Nigel Slater embarks on a Middle Eastern food adventure, exploring some of the oldest and grandest cuisines in the world.

Andrew Graham-Dixon travels to Northern Spain to visit some of the world's oldest works of art, hundreds of meters beneath the surface of the earth. In limestone caves he is astonished to find a series of vivid paintings, some of which are over 33,000 years old, which appear to link modern man to our ice age ancestors.
Back in London, the British Museum is staging one of its most ambitious exhibitions yet, Ice Age Art: Arrival of the Modern Mind. Andrew gets a behind-the-scenes preview of the extraordinary highlights and discovers that the world's first commissioned artists were producing highly sophisticated work tens of thousands of years before he previously imagined.
The programme includes contributions from the British Museum's director, Neil MacGregor, and artist Antony Gormley.
