THE SECRET LIFE OF THE LONG-HAUL FLIGHT, 9PM, CH5

EVERY year, more than 300 million people board flying behemoths and take to the skies on long-haul flights around the world. Filmed before, during and after a flight from London to Sydney, this surprisingly involving documentary reveals the technical wizardry involved in getting a double-decker Airbus A380 into the sky — and keeping it there for the 11,000-mile journey. Plus, passengers reveal their reasons for travelling to Australia, and cabin crew spill the beans on life in the air.
