Sing While You Work: Severn Trent Water

Choirmaster Gareth Malone continues his mission to get some of Britain's busiest workplaces singing. This week he travels to the Midlands to set up final choir in one of the country's largest water companies, Severn Trent Water. Once formed, the choir will sing against three other workplace choirs as they compete for the chance to be crowned Gareth's Best Workplace choir. With over five thousand call centre staff and over five hundred workmen, dealing with everything from raw sewage and finding leaks, finding thirty people to make up the choir appears easy. But as staff are struggling to juggle family commitments and busy work schedules, things aren't plain sailing and Gareth begins to feel the pressure.

With all of his workplace choirs set up, the contest to find Gareth Malone's best workplace choir begins in earnest as all four choirs compete against each other for the first time. Each choir is given a new song and Gareth piles on the pressure by announcing that they must create a distinctive performance routine if they want to stand out. Each choir has less than four weeks to prepare, before they must perform in front of the three expert judges at Bristol's prestigious Colston Hall. Only three choirs will make it through to the final, one choir will leave but which will it be: Lewisham NHS Trust, The Royal Mail, Manchester Airport or Severn Trent Water?

Beyond the Gates

Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.
