Episode 11
There's a perilous situation on the M25 when a slide bed truck carrying a van loses both its offside wheels. It threatens to topple into the inside lane and, to make matters worse, it's on a blind bend just beyond a junction. Lantern recovery op Merrie faces a race against time to stabilise the vehicle and prevent a calamitous collapse before she can even consider towing it to safety. The process calls for two full motorway closures as well as a lane one closure throughout — yet not all motorists obey the rules, making this one of the most hazardous rescues Merrie has faced. In Leicester, Crouch Recovery boss Adam sends op Jamie out in a brand new tractor, after a misguided shortcut across a boggy green in a housing estate has caused a dustbin lorry to sink deep down into the mud. The lorry is so firmly wedged that initial towing attempts see it pulling the tractor back towards it, so Jamie must use all of the bespoke tractor's hardware to stand any chance of taking out this trash titan. With wintry weather setting in, the workload is increasing for op Kevin. While on shift with a double decker recovery truck, he has two jobs to contend with — one car that has had a collision with a petrol tanker and a second with a mechanical failure on the hard shoulder of the M6. Kevin must contend with an inaccessible car park, disgruntled customers and an absence of support on the motorway, while also being buffeted by the winds caused by HGVs hurtling past at 60mph.

American Pickers
This isn't your grandmother's antiquing. The American Pickers are on a mission to recycle America, even if it means diving into countless piles of grimy junk or getting chased off a gun-wielding homeowner's land. Hitting back roads from coast to coast, the Pickers earn a living by restoring forgotten relics to their former glory, transforming one person's trash into another's treasure. The show follows the team as they scour the country for hidden gems in junkyards, basements, garages and barns, meeting quirky characters and hearing their amazing stories. If you think the antique business is all about upscale boutiques and buttoned-up dealers, this show may change your mind – and teach you a thing or two about American history along the way.
McDonald & Dodds
McDonald & Dodds is set in Bath and follows the wildly ambitious DCI McDonald, who is partnered with the shy, modest DS Dodds. While McDonald has transferred from the mean streets of South London to leap up the career ladder, Dodds has happily languished on the shelf for most of his working life.
McDonald is a tough, driven, battering ram of a cop who cracks cases through sheer force of will; Dodds – the tortoise to her hare – is quiet, unassuming and enigmatic. But thrust back into frontline action for the first time in a decade, he discovers a hidden talent for deciphering puzzles. Two contemporary Britons, seemingly with nothing in common, thrown together, boss McDonald and loyal sidekick Dodds forge a rumbustious, entertaining and ultimately – give or take a few setbacks – effective partnership.
