Cal Hunter and Claire Segeren tried to buy a two-bedroom flat in Glasgow, but when a house auction went wrong, they ended up accidentally buying a wrecked manor in a small community called Dunoon in rural Scotland. Now they're living on site in a caravan, trying to turn a ruin into a dream home. They've documented their build in a blog called "What have we Dunoon". Christian Clot is an explorer who travels to the world's most inhospitable places to try and survive. But recently, he worked with scientists on something a little different. Christian took 14 others into a labyrinthine cave system in south-western France to see what happens to humans' perception of time in the absence of clocks and natural light. They spent 40 days inside and did not expect to react the way they did when told the experiment was over. Ulrike Poppe spent 15 years under Stasi surveillance in East Berlin. In the 1990s she tracked down the agent who’d known everything about her.
