A Week to My Wedding features ordinary couples taking, what is essentially, an extraordinary step - that of committing themselves to one person for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health for all the days of their lives. This year over 24,000 couples will say ‘I do’. The average wedding will cost over 21,000 euro and no wedding is the same. In this new series, we join six couples with one week to go. A week set to be one of the most intense, stressful, unpredictable and exciting weeks they will ever experience.
Pet Rescue was a British daytime TV series broadcast on Channel 4. Launched in January 1997, it chronicled various pets and animals being rescued, cared for, and then either rehoused or returned to the wild.
Produced by Bazal Productions/Endemol for Channel 4, and with a theme tune penned by Simon May, it ran to a set format, which developed little over time:
⁕A central presenter
⁕A location, based around an RSPCA office
⁕A couple of 'show' stories which were intertwined, and reached conclusion within that show - i.e.: animal rehoused/released into wild
⁕A longer story about a particular animal, species or animal issue
The program closed with an "advert" for a particular animal which had spent a lot of time in a rescue home, which the public could call in to apply to rehouse. This later feature followed normal RSPCA rehousing procedures, and was not a "lottery".
Presenters included:
⁕Mark Evans
⁕Tris Payne
⁕Matthew Robertson
⁕Wendy Turner Webster
⁕Helen Page

Everyone knows heavy haulage: large parts are transported on big trucks with yellow warning lights on streets.

These require pinpoint planning, which can only take place with special safety precautions, and for which large teams plan months in advance before things are ready.
