RunningReality show

Welcome to The Motorway Hotel, a family-run business yards from the M6 in Staffordshire, catering to commuters, motorists, locals and road workers alike.

Juggling 41 rooms, a wedding business, restaurant and bar, there's never a dull moment for the Lewis clan who own and run the hotel and a team of staff, some of whom have been there for decades. With Britain's longest motorway thundering past the door and all the stresses and strains of running a busy hotel, watch the drama unfold as the team tries to keep the Motorway Hotel running in a straight line.

Hotel bosses Chris Lewis and his wife Dawn have recently handed over control of the Motorway Hotel to their daughter Emily. But Chris is having trouble stepping back, which is causing ripples…

There's a big party brewing at the Motorway Hotel: the annual national Maize Maze awards is meant to be in town, but as the guests are due to arrive a huge fall of snow sends the M6 into chaos and threatens to ruin the whole event, sending owner Chris out with his snow shovel. When they do arrive there's some worry over whether entertainer Josh can pull off his edgy "Drag Granny" act to keep the punters amused.

In the kitchen, Head Chef James is trying out apprentice Kaylan, who's quit his job as an estate agent to sweat over a hot stove, but he's tested to the limit with a challenge to cook some very expensive steaks to exacting standards, after a visit to the beautiful local farm where the beef is reared.

For the Lewis family, owners of the hotel, there's a rare moment for reflection as Chris and Dawn share some long-forgotten pictures of the Moat House before it was even a hotel with new supremo daughter Emily. That's before they throw a dinner for all their longest serving staff including some, like pot-washer Ida, who've been there for decades.

On the roads, a courier has slashed his tyres on a damaged kerb and recovery driver Greg is rushing to get him, and his parcels, back on the move. And when he's finished that, he's off to help boss Chris who's driven the ride-on mower into the Motorway Hotel's moat!

Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire

Based on Anne Rice's iconic and bestselling novel, Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire follows Louis de Pointe, Lestat de Lioncourt and Claudia's epic story of love, blood and the perils of immortality, as told to the journalist Daniel Molloy. Chafing at the limitations of life as a Black man in New Orleans in the early 1900s, Louis finds it impossible to resist the rakish Lestat de Lioncourt's offer of the ultimate escape: joining him as his vampire companion. But Louis's intoxicating new powers come with a violent price, and the introduction of Lestat's newest fledgling, the child vampire Claudia, soon sets them on a decades-long path of revenge and atonement.
