Dispatches

Dispatches reporter Ellie Flynn investigates Britain's obsession with skinny jabs and asks whether profits are being prioritised over patient safety. Undercover filming exposes the drugs being sold by a major high street chain to an under-age patient; and exposes registered NHS nurses prescribing the jabs without proper checks on patients. With an estimated half a million Britons currently being prescribed these drugs, Ellie talks to experts, who are concerned about the lack of oversight. 'Where there are huge profits to be made, unfortunately,' says one, 'that can lead to cutting of corners'. Ellie asks why there are so many patients living with obesity who are unable to get these jabs on the NHS, and reveals for the first time entire areas of the country where the NHS is not prescribing the drugs. 

For the first time, Dispatches investigates and tracks down the woman who facilitated Mohamed Al Fayed's sexual abuse of women at Harrods. Reporter Cathy Newman hears testimony from victims of the former Harrods owner who allege that a former senior employee of Harrods was instrumental in enabling and covering up their rape and abuse by the notorious billionaire over more than a decade. Newman hears how the woman would recruit young girls inside the world-famous store and even out on London's streets, then deliver them to Fayed. Afterwards, she would threaten and persuade the women to keep quiet about what happened to them. 

As the Government releases thousands of offenders early, to ease prison overcrowding - one of its most controversial policies - Dispatches is undercover inside Britain's biggest tagging company, Serco, which is supposed to monitor offenders in the community. Dispatches finds a system in disarray and serious failures that put the public at risk. 

Reporter Matt Shea goes on the trail of stolen cars to track down the thieves and recover the vehicles, meeting whistleblowers and criminals, and going undercover to expose the truth about Britain's car crime epidemic.

Political journalist Fraser Nelson goes beyond the headlines to explore the rise of Reform, assessing the impact of Nigel Farage and his young party on the existing political infrastructure. As Reform builds momentum, Nelson examines the deeper forces behind its support - disillusionment, identity and a hunger for disruption - and assesses whether Britain might be on the verge of a political earthquake. Is Reform merely the nation's biggest ever protest vote to date - or is it the start of a surge that will eventually see Farage become prime minister?
