Post Description

In this returning series, Ross and his team reaffirm their reputation as one of the most exciting and hard-hitting documentary crews, as they travel to new crime and poverty hotspots. Ross's ability to bring often under-reported stories of crime and hardship to a wide audience makes Extreme World Series 2 a must-see show.

The new series kicks off in Karachi, and sees Ross and his crew caught in the cross-fire while reporting on the battle for the city's political votes. Episode two takes Ross to President Chavez's Venezuela, where kidnappings and murder are rife. He is also allowed unprecedented access to one of Venezuela's most notorious prisons, and comes face to face with a gang of kidnappers.

Later episodes reveal the brutal reality of life in post-Katrina New Orleans, and a wave of 'witch-hunts' that are sweeping through the rural communities of Kenya and Tanzania.

Back in Europe, Ross and his team investigate the modern-day French Connection in Marseille, and finally, Ross makes his way home via Glasgow, where he is shocked by the extreme poverty that has become a way of life in recession-blighted Britain.
