Little Trains & Big Names with Peter Waterman (2023- )

RunningDocumentary show

Thenew four-part series with legendary music producer Pete Waterman which will explore the weird and wonderful world of miniature model railways on More 4.

The idea for the series came from Waterman's lifelong fascination with railways. In addition to juggling his jam-packed schedule as one of the country's finest pop music auteurs, Waterman also considers himself a full-time model railway enthusiast.

The series will see Waterman travel the country to link up with some of his famous friends who share his passion for all things miniature including Jools Holland, Eddie Izzard, James May and Francis Rossi.

From getting an exclusive peek at extra special work of Holland's which is over 12 years in the making, to helping Status Quo's Rossi find inspiration for his very first layout, each guest will offer a new perspective on the joys of this wonderful pastime.

As well as marvelling at his friends' models, Waterman will also be on the lookout for some new tips and tricks as he endeavours to complete his own brand-new model railway, a gigantic exhibition piece which he has just 6 months to build before it opens to the public.

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives

With roadside diners, vintage drive-ins and out-of-the-way "dives" enjoying a resurgence of hipness among foodies, host Guy Fieri travels across America in search of some of the best "greasy spoon" eateries. The restaurants that Guy visits are usually well-known among locals and other people in the region. While at each location, Fieri talks to the staff as well as the customers to get their thoughts on the food. Many episodes feature eateries that are connected by a common thread, such as burgers or comfort foods but its all here on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.

Family Guy

Family Guy follows Peter Griffin the endearingly ignorant dad, and his hilariously offbeat family of middle-class New Englanders in Quahog, RI. Lois is Peter's wife, a stay-at-home mom with no patience for her family's antics. Then there are their kids: 18-year-old Meg is an outcast at school and the Griffin family punching bag; 13-year-old Chris is a socially awkward teen who doesn't have a clue about the opposite sex; and one-year-old Stewie is a diabolically clever baby whose burgeoning sexuality is very much a work in progress. Rounding out the Griffin household is Brian the family dog and a ladies' man who is one step away from AA.
