Johnson Beharry Story -- Victoria Cross Stories of Herois...
Description: The Victoria Cross is given for valour. The story of Johnson Beharry is truly inspiring. He tells the story of how he was driving his vehicle on patrol in Afghanistan, with his platoon. Then, fire erupted and the vehicle was hit. Not knowing if the people he was carrying in the Warrior armoured car were alive or dead, he decided to get the vehicle out of danger, and then see who was alive, and get them to safety.
Despite being under continuous enemy fire and injured, he removed all his comrades to safety, and then tried to make sure that his vehicle did not fall into enemy hands. Despite all the odds, he survived to tell the story. If you want to listen to that inspiring story on heroism in Afghanistan, then this video by Johnson Barry is inspirational. The story of a hero in Afghanistan.

Strictly Soulmates - Muslim
Description: Looking for love is tough at the best of times and it can be even harder when your pool of potential partners is small. Welcome to the world of being young, single and religious. This is looking for love as it's rarely been seen on TV before - with religion in play there are a whole new set of rules and it can be seriously tough to find 'the one'. Strictly Soulmates takes a fun, entertaining and emotional look at the real life trials and tribulations of a group of singletons trying to find their perfect match from four different religions: Evangelical Christian, Hindu, Muslim and Jewish.
If you're young, single and Muslim, you're not actually allowed to date, so finding a partner involves lots of help from mum, dad, auntie and uncle too. We take an engaging look at the highs and lows of three Muslim singletons, who have never even had a relationship before, as they begin their journey's to find 'the one'. As one of our singletons says 'it's a bit like blind date, but your mum is Cilla Black'.
