Episode 3
Loop tells the story of Shatha Altowai and her husband Saber, artists from Yemen who made the decision to flee their home after escalation in the civil war made it impossible to practise their art. Having found a safe haven in Edinburgh, they are now using their creativity to highlight the plight of those still trapped in the conflict.
On the Isle of Lewis, Netty Sopata takes us through the art of kilt making and shares the reasons why creating traditional garments using wool from her own flock of sheep is important to her.
Teenage photographer Dylan Lombard doesn't go anywhere without his camera. At the age of ten he was diagnosed with MDP syndrome, a condition that affects only 13 other people in the world. Looking different to his classmates, Dylan felt isolated growing up, until his parents bought him a camera and what began as a coping method soon became an obsession.
Loop also hears from Gilly McLaren, who was so in awe of the care she received while going through treatment for ovarian cancer that she began to create portraits of the NHS staff who saved her. In Dundee, she meets two of those staff and presents them with their portraits.

Yes, Chef!
Yes, Chef! blends the high-stakes thrill of a cooking competition with the raw emotion of personal transformation as it delves into the powerful personalities attracted to the chaotic culinary lifestyle. The series puts 12 highly skilled chefs, who have been nominated by their bosses, co-workers, friends and even family, through the ultimate test. These rising stars all have natural talent, but their egos, intensity, stubbornness or short fuses are holding them back from reaching their full potential. The chefs will have to prove they have the culinary chops and the right attitude to make it to the end. The chef who handles the heat, impressing with both their food and teamwork while improving their behavior, will take home the $250,000 grand prize, provided by granola brand Purely Elizabeth.
Temptation Island
Temptation Island follows four dating couples at a pivotal time in their relationship, where they must mutually decide if they are ready to commit to one another for the rest of their lives -- or should go their separate ways. Together, the couples travel to the tropical paradise of Maui, Hawaii, where they join 24 eligible men and women. There, they live the "single life," in a test that is meant to help answer their most difficult questions about their relationship.
Yellowjackets
Yellowjackets follows a girls' high school soccer team. In 1975, the Dearborn High Yellowjackets became the first team in state history to qualify for the Girls' U.S. Soccer Championship Series in Manchester, NH. They never got the chance to compete. Equal parts survival epic, horror story and pitch black coming of age, Yellowjackets tells the story of the (un)lucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the Ontario wilderness, chronicling their descent from a friendly, cooperative team to warring, cannibalistic clans. At the same time, it follows the lives they've attempted to piece back together nearly twenty-five years later, proving that the past is never really past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.
Resident Alien
Resident Alien is a dark, twisted and comedic fish-out-of-water story that follows a crash-landed alien named Harry who, after taking on the identity of a small-town Colorado doctor, slowly begins to wrestle with the moral dilemma of his secret mission on Earth — ultimately asking the question, "Are human beings worth saving?"
