本系列纪录片讲述了三组来自世界各地令人大开眼界的“特殊人物”。一对来自巴基斯坦的“太阳能男孩”——白天生龙活虎，太阳一落山就完全陷入瘫痪，全身动弹不得。一名被“偷走青春”的英国少女——明明只有20岁却长了一副60多岁的容颜。还有来自印尼的世界上最重的男孩——190多公斤的体重，几乎让他寸步难行。这些人都因为各种全球罕见的病症，被生活逼上了绝路。本片将通过对他们的跟踪采访，揭示这些特殊人物的日常生活，以及他们对抗自身命运的不懈斗争。
从灯火通明的大都市，到人烟稀少的深山老林；从广阔无垠的大草原，到人迹罕至的沙漠戈壁；从长年积雪的高海拨山区到一望无际的平原；从浩瀚大地到碧海蓝天……中国，这片古老而又神奇的土地，囊括了多种特质的地貌，哺育着各族儿女，也孕育着各类珍奇野兽，奇花异草。这次，通过镜头，我们去探访散落在这片土地上的美丽奇景。沿着长江流域，去看喀斯特地貌造就的奇石怪林；去云南的热带雨林，寻找亚洲野象、滇金丝猴；来到青藏高原，奔赴内蒙草地，攀爬山脉，眺望西部边陲。这里，是你我熟悉又陌生的美丽中国。 本片是CCTV和BBC第一次联合摄制的作品，历时4年拍摄，使用了航拍、红外、高速、延时和水下等先进摄影技术。一共六集，分别为《富饶华南》、《彩云之南》、《青藏高原》、《长城以外》、《龙之疆域》和《喧闹海岸》。
Everyone has an opinion on bad cars... now it's time to hear the ones that really count--ours... As it's the worst car in the history of the WORLD, we're on our travels ... to the North of England ... to name and shame the most rubbish car from a manufacturer which, frankly, should have known better. But, it's not all about hateful cars ... Oh no. You have to revel in some good ones to appreciate the stinkers. There's the Ferrari 458 spider, Toyota's GT86 and the £340,000 Lexus LFA rubbing shoulders with a Mercedes SLS. Our guest driver, The Stig's Yorkshire cousin, puts his whippet to one side and throws a BMW M5 round a gymkhana course before we have a go in a couple of Transatlantic challengers. Things don't go well. We spend treasured leisure time on the golf course continuing our debate. That doesn't go well either. We even put our own cars--past and present--into the reckoning. That ends badly too. We argue over the great and the awful from Peugeot, Ford, Mahindra, FSO, Alfa Romeo, Rolls Royce, Porsche, Citroen, Saab ... and many more. And we have a special, surprise fate in store for the car we pick as our biggest loser... Enjoy... Jeremy Clarkson James May
