MAN ALONE

He's the legendary Kiwi sailor you probably haven't heard of – Conrad Colman.

Last November 250,000 people waved Conrad off on the Vendee Globe yacht race – a solo, non-stop, round the world challenge, that is known as the Everest of the Seas. Half those who attempt it fail to even finish.

Conrad's remarkable journey of 110 days, alone, facing physical and emotional challenges he never expected, has made him a hero in France.

This week he tells his story of his near- death experience on the high seas, and how courage, Kiwi grit, and his family values helped him make it home against the odds.

FAMOUS LAST WORDS

"Be gallant, be great, be gracious, and be grateful for the opportunities that you have."

The words of Christchurch schoolboy Jake Bailey echoed around the world, as he lay dying from cancer.

The video of his 2015 prize giving speech went viral – and then, against all odds, he survived.

Now in remission, Jake faces new challenges – rebuilding his body and his life.

TOWERING AMBITION

They are like a rugby scrum with 200 people, but vertical - Spain's incredible human towers.

Most prized among the participants are the tiniest of children who, in front of the nation's cameras, clamber to the very top of the human towers only to fall furthest when the towers collapse.

Reporter Denham Hitchcock had the honour of taking part in the proud 200-year-old Spanish tradition of building soaring human towers when he competed with the Xiquetes de Tarragona in the grand final and when the team's pride and glory were on the line.

Gordon Ramsay's Secret Service

Restaurateurs who are looking for a quick fix or social media glow-up are in for the surprise of their lives when famed culinary titan Gordon Ramsay trades his signature chef knives for a state-of-the-art surveillance vehicle and cutting-edge spyware in FOX's all-new unscripted series, Gordon Ramsay's Secret Service. In a Gordon Ramsay series first, Chef Ramsay will venture into struggling restaurants under the cover of night. With the help of a secret source on the inside, he'll gather raw, unfiltered evidence and get a 360-degree view of the major issues facing each restaurant. This insider will not only remain a secret to the staff, but will also help Ramsay infiltrate the restaurant after-hours for a dramatic nighttime black light kitchen investigation that reveals more filth and grossness than ever before. By the time Ramsay reveals his identity, it will be too late for staff to cover up their culinary crimes. Gordon Ramsay's Secret Service will be his toughest assignment yet as he takes drastic measures to transform not only the restaurant but also the staff, because Gordon knows he can upgrade the menu and renovate the restaurant, but the most important change has to come from the people. Are the restaurant and staff willing to accept Gordon's mission, or are they too far gone to be saved?
