Beeb’s ahead, it’s a fact
A string of new factual shows has given BBC2 its strongest start to the year since 2014.
Among them are Surgeons, Tom Kerridge: Lose Weight For Good, A House Through Time and Flatpack Empire. Controller Patrick Holland says: “With a new series of Hospital around the corner, Civilisations just starting and The Assassination of Gianni Versace [starring Darren Criss] generating huge interest, we have some exciting months ahead.”
