OverView

The fabulous wealthy elite of Bridgerton look perfectly preened, their teeth, hair, make up, even their sex scenes are all filled with opulent glamour! But in reality a lot of people in Georgian society, including the wealthy, were dealing with a myriad of issues, from syphilis, teeth decay, secret sex societies and scandals to opium and gin addictions. All of this would have been rife and incredibly visible on the big city streets during the booming industrial revolution. This two-part series is a deep dive into the 'real' 18th century. Sex historian Dr Kate Lister removes Bridgerton’s rose-tinted glasses, unlaces the corsets and unbuttons the breaches of the Georgians. Join Kate as she investigates how sex, drugs and the world of celebrity were a big thing long before the 20th century.

Drugs Dus.

May 2025 •Dutch

Otto-Jan Ham makes a program about drugs. Because drugs have fascinated him all his life, but also and perhaps especially because he has three young daughters of his own. He also watches 'The News'. He knows how ubiquitous drugs are. It's only a matter of time before the apple of his eye is offered MDMA, or at least a hastily rolled joint. And so, because his sleep is dear to him, he wants to look the enemy straight in the eye. Objective and with an open mind. 'Drugs', a sober look at mind-expanding shit.

Shameless

May 2025 •Danish

Is it SHAMELESS to feel like having a lot of sex when you are a young woman? In DR3’s new reportage series, we follow three strong young women who defy prejudice and shame and set their sexual desires free. Here it is Inger, Asmita and Sofie who "take and give" as the most natural. They refuse to degrade female sexuality into something that should be overlooked, suppressed, or felt wrong. We open the door to the most intimate of their lives and experience all that is not normally said out loud. For Inger, Asmita and Sofie insist that it should be possible to have an open sex life as a woman in 2021 without being labeled "cheap".

Dr Tatiana's Sex Advice to All Creation

May 2025 •English

A guide to the evolutionary biology of sex. Science documentary with songs(!) based on the book “Dr Tatiana's, Sex Advice to all Creation - The Definitive Guide to the Evolutionary Biology of Sex” written by the biologist Olivia Judson. and adapted for television. If sex is universal, why do species go about it in so many different ways? And what can humans learn from the mating habits of the creatures of the animal world? Sex is the engine of evolution - the drive to mix genes to produce the strongest, fastest or most efficient specimen of the species has propelled all of creation to evolve, adapt and survive. Promiscuity, jealousy, violence, incest, suicide, cannibalism and indeed hermaphrodites all serve an evolutionary purpose - and in the animal world, monogamy is a "sexually deviant" behaviour that serves no evolutionary intent. 3 x 1 hour episodes. Dr Tatiana is played by the author Olivia Judson. Production Company: Wag TV and EPI Productions for Channel 4: 2004

Sex in the Ancient World

May 2025 •English

In the beginning was sex. To the ancient cultures, sexuality, love and sex were inextricably connected with the creation of the earth, the heavens and the underworld. To the citizens of the ancient civilizations that gave birth to ours, sensuality and sexuality were an integral part of society. This series exploration of Egyptian and Roman sexual practice allows viewers the opportunity to see how attitudes and beliefs about sexuality functioned in the early civilizations, and how those attitudes reveal the unspoken rules that defined public and private behavior. Episodes cover human sex and sexuality from a historical perspective, and examines in detail different texts and images which provide us with evidence about sexual practices, beliefs and ideologies in the ancient world – from erotica on pots to legal texts, phallic votive objects, fertility ceremonies, prostitution, female and hermaphroditic creator deities, from religious rituals to sex manuals.
