C91热爆 brings an all-star cast to the screen in 2005 with an adaptation
of Kidnapped, Robert Louis Stevenson's classic tale.
Iain Glen stars as Alan Breck and James Anthony Pearson
as Davie Balfour in Stevenson's tale of treachery, romance and rebellion,
along with Paul McGann as Colonel McNab, Adrian Dunbar
as Uncle Ebenezer, Gregor Fisher as James of the Glens and Kirstin
Smith as Catriona.
Kidnapped chronicles the adventures of Breck and Balfour as they escape
murder and shipwreck on a quest for justice, all set against the fierce
social and political backdrop of 1760s Scotland.
The 91热爆 is working with South Pacific Productions (makers of the Oscar
nominated film Whale Rider) on location in New Zealand.

Following the success of the RTS award-winning Serious Jungle and last
year's Serious Desert, C91热爆 presents Serious Arctic, a new six-part
documentary series that promises to be the most challenging Serious
expedition to date.
Serious Arctic follows eight intrepid teenage volunteers as they spend
three weeks in the Canadian High Arctic where their mission is to help
scientists by collecting crucial data linked to global warming.
They will measure - for the first time - one of Canada's most southerly
glaciers and help the endangered polar bear.
Four girls and four boys were selected from nearly 10,000 eager volunteers.
Serious Arctic documents the adventures of the eight as they get the
chance to experience this once in a lifetime opportunity.
Their tough journey sees the keen youngsters tolerating the most basic
and harsh conditions, including travelling over 100 miles by dog sled
and living in conditions of 50 degrees below zero with wind storms of
up to 70 miles per hour.

Newsround - Islam Week
Newsround is planning a week of special programmes looking at what
life is like for young Muslims in the UK and around the world.
Muslims have found themselves in the headlines regularly since the
events of September 11 2001, and many feel they are portrayed unfairly.
How much do children generally understand about the Muslim faith?
The week starts with a Newsround Extra featuring the findings of research
commissioned by the Newsround team to discover children's attitudes
towards Muslims in the UK, and also what's thought to be the first national
survey amongst British Muslim children.
The programme also features Press Packs (reports from children themselves).
The rest of the week looks at stories such as the growth of Islamic
hip hop, and asks young people in the Arab world what they think of
the UK and the US.
