De dag dat de dollar valt...
Leven we op een zeepbel? Kan de zwaar in de schulden geraakte Amerikaanse economie instorten en ons, Europeanen, meesleuren in de vrije val? Zijn de dagen van wereldmunt dollar geteld? En is een herhaling van de crisisjaren dertig echt zo ondenkbaar? VPRO's Tegenlicht en NRC Handelsblad presenteren in nauwe samenwerking hun eerste proeve van 'stel dat'-journalistiek. Stel dat op een dag de dollar valt. In een scenario dat zich ontrolt in 24 uur buitelen waarheid en fictie over elkaar heen. Om negen uur 's morgens krijgt een handelaar in Singapore de opdracht om een grote hoeveelheid dollars te verkopen, waarmee hij een ongekend diepe val van de dollar in gang zet. Uur na uur zien we hoe de wereld daarop reageert. Aan het eind van de dag staat correspondent Twan Huys handenwringend voor de camera in Washington, Chinezen maken zich op voor een mogelijke oorlog, en in Amsterdam kan een vrouw haar taxi alleen nog maar betalen met drie pakjes sigaretten.

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?
