Chev Chelios è un killer che ha smesso di uccidere per amore della bella Eve. Ma il boss dei duri e cattivi malavitosi della West Coast non ci sta e lo condanna a una morte singolare. Durante il sonno, lo schizzato Ricky Verona inietta a Chev un veleno che arresta il cuore. Per sopravvivere il suo corpo dovrà costantemente rilasciare adrenalina. Far reagire il cuore, creando situazioni di stress, sarà la missione del killer pentito. Lecito e vitale qualsiasi espediente: provocare afroamericani incazzati e armati, guidare in un centro commerciale, scolare Red Bull, cavalcare una moto o possedere la compagna sui marciapiedi di Los Angeles.

Victorian Pharmacy is a historical documentary TV series in four parts, first shown on BBC Two in July 2010. It was made for the BBC by independent production company Lion Television. It was filmed at Blists Hill Victorian Town in Shropshire. It is a historical documentary that looks at life in the 19th Century and how people attempted to cure common ailments. Since some of the ingredients of Victorian remedies are now either illegal or known to be dangerous, Nick Barber often uses his modern pharmaceutical knowledge to produce similar products without those ingredients. The other main presenters are Tom Quick, a PhD student, and Ruth Goodman, a domestic historian who also appeared in Tales from the Green Valley, Victorian Farm and Edwardian Farm.
