The Architecture the Railways Built: Episode 6

Tim explores the last working roundhouse in the UK, Barrow Hill in Derbyshire. He visits Bath, a city renowned for its Georgian architecture, but it’s main railway station, Bath Spa has quite a different feel. Tim also looks at the transformation of Lód? Fabryczna, one of the most modern stations in Poland.

The Architecture the Railways Built sees railway expert and train enthusiast Tim Dunn exploring the stunning architecture that lines the railway network. He visits stations made up of simple stone buildings, decorative Victorian grandeur, art deco masterpieces and striking glass and concrete structures created over the last few years. But Tim doesn’t stop at stations. He’s been given a platform to explore any structure which owes its existence to the railway: viaducts, signal boxes, tunnels, pedestrian passages, workshops, railway hotels: as well as less obvious buildings like homes, swimming pools and Turkish baths.

Million Pound Pawn: Episode 2 / ITV 2 Mar 2021

Million Pound Pawn: Episode 2

This week we return to the world of luxury pawnbroking where assets can be worth six figure sums. Customers can either sell their assets or borrow money against them but risk losing their valuables if they can’t repay their loan. However, it’s also a risk for the pawnbroker – in an industry flooded with counterfeit goods, unique items need expert valuation and erratic markets must be navigated, the more valuable the asset the bigger the risk to the pawnbroker.

Million Pound Pawn pulls back the curtain on the world of pawnbroking in the midst of the current economic crisis, telling the story of both the pawnbrokers and the people looking to part with their prized possessions. With over a million pounds worth of assets passing through Britain’s pawnbrokers hands each day, there’s no way of knowing who will be walking through the pawnbroker’s door next or what their valuables will be.

In this episode, Stacey meets 75 year-old Bill, who grew up without a father. Born at the end of World War II, Bill’s mum fell in love with his dad, who was an African American GI stationed at her local Loughborough airbase. He went back to America at the end of the war and she never heard from him again – the only information Bill has ever had about his father is the name written on his birth certificate. Now Bill wants to know if analysing his DNA might be able to tell him what happened to his dad – and if he has any living relatives in the US.

Stacey Dooley helps to uncover people’s burning questions about their family, health or ancestry with a visit to a DNA testing clinic.
