The eight-part series will explore some of the best escapes for people to experience in Scotland, with one destination winning the crown of Scotland’s Greatest Escape. 

Cameras will travel up and down Scotland to discover a wide variety of holiday styles and destinations.

The public and businesses can nominate places and holiday experiences they think are special enough to win the top prize. 

The judges are not looking solely for luxury experiences but are focused on exceptionality and want experiences across a range of budgets.

Giving back to the industry that made him, the French maître d’ will recruit 10 young people for tough roles in a high-end hotel.

Located on the French Riviera in the area where Fred himself trained as a youngster, the team will cater for demanding clientele from around the world.

The first series pitted eight jewellers against each other for a six-part competition over six weeks.

Contestants both designed and created jewellery to brief in a specially built workshop in Birmingham’s historic Jewellery Quarter.

Each episode presented them with two challenges: The Best Seller and The Bespoke, making pieces for the mass market and custom pieces for clients.

The final saw 24-year-old diamond mounter Hugo Johnson take home the series one crown.

The series will offer six aspiring property entrepreneurs the chance to start their own business.

Each of the developers will be given a £100,000 investment to kick-start their business, before competing against one another to see who can make the most profit from their property in a calendar year.

A property expert will advise all the contestants, but they will only learn of their competitors’ progress when each property listing goes live.

The four-part series will see a group of celebrities pitted against each other and challenged to learn as much as possible about a new topic they know nothing about.

Their memory of this new topic will then be tested by Toksvig at Memory HQ, with experts offering the celebrities memory tips and tricks to help change the way they think and improve their memory.

Across the four episodes, the celebrities will be whittled down to just one, who will be crowned Memory Champion.

There will be a mix of special programmes and a look back at some classic moments from Eurovision.

Famous faces Graham Norton, Ken Bruce and Rylan Clark-Neal will help bring the Eurovision spirt into viewers homes. 

Graham Norton described Eurovision as a form of “escapism” for people especially during these times.

He added: “This year people at home can celebrate the amazing spirit of the event and hopefully get the chance to take their mind off the current situation for a few hours.”
