The Life of Riley - Surtsey Ana Krakatoa
Jackie Riley's always been a winner.
In the 2008 Cycling World Championships, Jackie Riley is on the brink of setting a new world record. As she reaches out for glory a tragic accident destroys her hopes and dreams, as well as shattering her legs, leaving her paralysed for life.
After a year of physiotherapy and rehabilitation Jackie reluctantly employs Marcin, a migrant Polish worker as her carer.
Jackie hates the idea of this foreigner living in her home and interfering in her life. But Marcin sees Jackie as bitter and twisted - she'll be okay once he's sweetened her up and straightened her out.

Absolution (pt I) - Crimes Against Humanity
Set against a backdrop of increasing international tension on both sides of the Atlantic, Absolution follows the lives of seven people who reach a pivotal point in their lives and embark upon new paths, setting them on a collision course. Together, the characters descend into a complex world of conspiracy, drugs, murder, and prostitution. Nevertheless, they are human and find themselves bound by love, loyalty, and family. Characters originally from both sides of the moral divide are forced to accept; there is no line, there is no right or wrong. And they are seeking the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow that contains only shades of grey.
It is no coincidence that there seven characters and seven deadly sins. Individuals look to God for absolution or redemption. Eventually, they realise, there always was a line. It has been crossed, and not by them. The way the live their individual lives is insignificant. The power of one doesn't actually make a difference when the US have given China an ultimatum, and China have sent their reply.
