PICK OF THE DAY

Meat: A Threat To Our Planet?

i's TV newsletter: what you should watch next

One of the biggest recent shifts in peoples perception of vegetarianism is in how not eating meat has gone from being an animal welfare/personal health issue to a wider ecological problem. Here, the biologist Liz Bonnin (who fronted Drowning In Plastic) investigates the environmental impact of a carnivore diet. Bonnin (left) begins in Texas, on a vast intensive farm with 50,000 cows, which emit huge amounts of methane, an incredibly potent greenhouse gas. At a university in California, she hears of scientific efforts to better understand a cows digestion. Meanwhile, in the Amazon, much deforestation is happeningin order to create beef farms.

The Mallorca Files

With more than two million British tourists visiting Mallorca each year, and more than twice that number of Germans, a crime drama set on the Balearic island in which British and German detectives team up should find a large market among sun-starved northern Europeans. Dan Seftons refreshingly breezy new daytime crime drama sees DC Miranda Blake sent to escort a supergrass back to the UK, but when her mission goes awry, she stays on.

Vienna Blood

Our 1900s psychoanalytical sleuth Max (Matthew Beard) leaves his own engagement party (not that he seems that committed to Clara) in order to join Oskar, who has rushed off to investigate the murder of three women in a brothel. The police quickly make an arrest, but Max is unconvinced and his mentor Sigmund Freud might have something to say about the symbolism of this latest storyline.

24 Hours In A&E

Mohammad, a 43-year-old with motor neurone disease, is taken to St Georges Hospital with sepsis and doctors work to get the infection under control, while David has fallen 20ft from a billboard and retired journalist Tom is in the urgent care centre after knocking his arm.

Chris Tarrant: Railways Of The Somme

The former Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? host seems to have become Channel 5s answer to Michael Portillo, Tarrants latest railway documentary series seeing him travel across Europe to examine the trains role in the First World War. In Northumberland, he rides on a preserved locomotive to find out how important the railways were to Britain for mobilisation of troops, and aboard a holiday train commandeered to transport troops and ammunition, Tarrant tells the stories of two opposing soldiers, one English and one German, both of whom took trains to the Somme in 1916.

Murder In The Bush: Cold Case Hammarskjold Storyville

This could either be the worlds biggest murder mystery or the worlds most idiotic conspiracy theory, says the gonzo Danish filmmaker Mads Brugger at the start of his documentary investigating the circumstances surrounding the death by plane crash of United Nations secretary-general Dag Hammarskjold in 1961. Bruggers investigation into this 58-year-old mystery leads him to a mercenary organisation with the innocuous name of the South African Institute of Maritime Research. He discovers a conspiracy that, if true (and its an enormous if) is truly monumental.
