Hidden Britain by Drone (C4, 8pm)
SIR Tony Robinson presents a second series of the programme that uses drones to shoot aerial footage of areas of Britain that are usually off limits to the public. In the first episode of the latest series, he dispatches flying cameras to explore an abandoned theme park, London’s extensive tube system, an immense stately home and underground wine vaults belonging to billionaires. The programme also examines the secrets that Argos conceals from the eyes of its customers and contains footage of a flower farm in full bloom, which is closed to the public for 50 weeks of the year.
Unforgotten (STV, 9pm)
WHAT has been incredibly obvious to viewers ever since episode one finally dawns on detectives Cassie and Sunny – the four men suspected of killing Hayley have conspired to cover up what
they were doing on the night of the millennium. The truth of the matter becomes clear after the
sleuthing duo meet James Hollis’s former wife Mel, who is only too keen to tell them her version of events. They also think that the first Mrs Tim Finch may be able to shed new light on matters and dispatch Jake to speak to her. Meanwhile, as disturbing information about Chris Lowe’s life is uncovered, Pete Carr’s DNA is discovered in the church where a break-in took place on the night in question. Cassie, however, is distracted by her father’s memory problems.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
