Born Survivors

Kizzy Neal became pregnant when she was just 13 and gave birth to Kaylib in May 2007. Her pregnancy, birth and the first few months of motherhood were charted in a 2007 documentary. Now the cameras are back to follow Kizzy as she goes from young teenager to responsible mother. We join her as she gets the results of her GCSEs and struggles to juggle motherhood, college and work. As she approaches her 16th birthday, Kizzy craves the independence to bring Kaylib up in her own way and move out of home.

Documentary looking at how seven-stone teenager Emma's eating disorder is linked to her clinically-obese father Grant's condition. Discovering that his own weight was at the root of his daughter's illness was devastating for Grant, but fortunately, living in Lancaster means Emma can be referred to EDN (Eating Disorders Network), the area's only eating disorders charity. Over the course of six months, the programme follows Emma as she attempts to get to her goal weight of eight and a half stone.

Documentary about the efforts to help 11-year-old Reece, who had been drinking alcohol nearly every other weekend for a year. While older friends bought the alcohol, Reece saved up his pocket money and was secretly getting drunk in the local park. The film follows Reece and his 15-year-old friend Charlie as they attend the Glaciere Project, a scheme which has helped even the hardest of underage drinkers turn away from the bottle. However, it is a struggle and the temptation to drink is all around, especially in the form of peer pressure. With 13 people under the age of 16 hospitalised each day in the UK as a result of alcohol misuse, the film gives an intimate and honest portrayal of young people as they reveal the extent of their drinking and the effect it is having on their lives.
