Christmas has come early for military artefacts dealer Bruce Crompton when he gets his hands on an incredibly rare German Panther tank.  In its original undercoat this one is more pink than camouflage. There are just two working models in the world and fully restored his could be worth as much as five million pounds.  But that's easier said than done - to do it up Bruce and his team must scour Europe to track down authentic parts, whilst mechanics, the twins, call in a WWII tank expert to do some detective work to uncover the secrets of the Panthers past; which ends with an explosive revelation about how the tank met its sticky end in the war.

Bruce hits the Philippines and when his para sidekick Freddy isn't throwing up in the local restaurants Bruce is digging up some treasures from the Pacific War. Through the objects he haggles for and buys, we discover the fascinating and dark history of Japanese occupation during WW2 and the bloody battles fought by the Allies to kick them out.  Back in the UK Bruce has asked the twins to restore a rusty, super rare Japanese artillery gun, then a quick trip down under to purchase and amphibious assault vehicle … all relics of the Pacific War. 

Bruce has managed to flog an Aussie museum half million quid’s worth of WW2 tank destroyer, but the shipping deadline is looming and the destroyer is missing one tiny detail … the barrel. While the twins set to work on the tank Bruce goes picking in former-Czechoslovakia where he acquires, among other things, an extraordinary non-magnetic, gyroscopic compass – designed to guide submarines under the ice to the North Pole. When Bruce, the tank and the team finally reach Down Under, they manage to lose the tank, but discover a Samurai sword, Commando dagger and other goodies, and have an adventure in Aborigine territory that rewrites history.

Bruce accidently discovers Hitler’s toilet! (Or at least a toilet from Hitler’s state yacht).  Bruce’s mate Kevin is spending over 5 million pounds restoring the world’s last remaining German torpedo boat and Bruce wants to be the dealer who supplies him with everything he needs for the job. From Kriegsmarine Kharzis to German anti-aircraft guns Bruce buys and sells his way from Plymouth to Illinois. His journey gives us a fascinating insight into the history of WW2 Naval warfare and how the Germans managed to terrorise Allied shipping.  Freddy and the Twins are left back in Blighty struggling to restore a rare German gun.

Last year, brothers Andrew and Kevin together with their engineer pal, Walker, set out to build a playground at their cottage property for their kids but what they came up with was unsafe, unattractive and ultimately, unused. The boys may be used to failure, but they are determined to remain heroes in the eyes of their children for as long as possible. With pride on the line, they ‘re determined to redeem themselves this time around -- or else face the scorn of their wives again -- by tackling the quintessential kids project: a tree fort.

Never again will brothers Andrew and Kevin find themselves at the perfect remote fishing spot but without a boat to sail out on – this weekend, they’re creating the ultimate all-in-one-camper-plus-boat solution by converting the truck cap on the back of their pickup into a boat. The boys better hope, though, that their wacky “bro-at” idea holds water, or else they’ll be swimming with the fishes, instead of catching them.

Brothers Andrew and Kevin have made a resolution to live healthier, more active lifestyles and decide that this weekend at the lake is as good a time to start as any. Their biggest huddle is the lack of proper exercise equipment at their cottage property. Rather than discouraging the bros, this spurs the creation of the Ultimate Outdoor Gym – a collection of one-of-a-kind rustic fitness gear that’ll perfectly suit their backwoods surroundings.

It’s going to be a high stakes weekend up as brothers Kevin and Andrew, along with their engineer pal Walker, are going all in and turning their quaint family retreat into the Cottage Casino. But a gambling den would never pass the “Mom Test” so it’ll need to be discreetly hidden away until their high-roller friends come calling. To accomplish this sleight-of-hand, the boys are converting their parents’ furniture and knick-knacks into cleverly-disguised custom poker tables, craps tables, beer dispensers, cigar humidors and much more. It’s time to ante up: with jokers as wild as these guys, you can bet this is one Brojects you don’t want to miss.

The chilly weather at their lakeside cottage property has brothers Andrew and Kevin opening their minds and pores to the ceremony of sweat that is the sauna. But knowing the bros, it’s not just going to be any old sauna – not when Andrew insists that the key to a truly amazing sauna is the ability to jump from the heat directly into the cold lake. They conclude that the only sensible thing to do is to make a sauna with immediate access to the deepest, coldest parts of the lake – the Ultimate Floating Sauna.

Football season is in full swing and brothers Kevin and Andrew have big plans for the season-ending showdown. But instead of going to the game, they're going to bring the game to them. Now with a sizable contingent of football friends geared up for a tailgate party at the cottage, the race is on to create the Ultimate Football Lounge -- an outdoor space protected from the elements complete with comfy insulated sofas made from repurposed wooden pallets, motorized beer coolers, gridiron challenges, and enough food to fill a stadium.

In Nome, Alaska, the gold rush is on. Meet the dredgers, driven by gold fever and sometimes desperate need, who pilot their ragtag dredges and dig with buckets or dive with hoses to suck up gold from the bottom of the frigid, unpredictable Bering Sea.

A bar brawl threatens not only Shawn's health but the Christine Rose's future. The Wild Ranger's luck is getting worse as they're down a man and have sprung a leak. The Sluicey's Ian calls in a friend who offers both experience and criticism.

The weather may be perfect, but storms are brewing onboard the dredges as egos clash and tempers flare. Emily's first dive is almost her last when she learns the dangers of dredging first-hand.

After all his years of wilderness survival around the globe, the forests of Ontario’s Temagami still rank as some of the most difficult, harrowing and challenging survival experiences Les has ever faced. Breathtakingly beautiful, Temagami’s old growth pine forests and refreshing blue lakes, bountiful with fish and wildlife, are sure to test Les’s survival skills yet again. Les returns to the oldest mountain ranges in North America to survive with no food, no water, no shelter, no safety and no camera crew. He survives eating wild edibles, hunting for food, making a fire and building a shelter. Key challenges are the incessant sting of mosquitos, blackflies and deerflies, as well as staying ever vigilant for moose, wolves, bears and other territorial wildlife.

Les and his 16-year-old son Logan find themselves trapped without supplies and without a way home while sea kayaking along the coastline of British Columbia. Staying hydrated, fed and warm takes on a whole new meaning with Logan by his side. Lack of food, unsafe water and inclement weather can wreck havoc on the body – let alone one’s mood. Logan’s better at video games than survival and better at hockey than starting a fire. Distraction can cause mistakes…and mistakes can be very costly.

Les and Logan set out for a father/son fishing trip in a tin boat. Stranded after their motor dies, Les and Logan are quickly plunged into an intense survival situation that could happen to any summer cottager. This father/son team must work together to stay hydrated, secure food, make shelter and flag down a rescue plane. Les gets creative using bug spray as a fire-starter. Father/son dynamics effect his decision-making.
