In the first episode UNILAD's new original series: 'The Dark Side of Britain', we explore whether the ban on hunting foxes with hounds, which was put in place in 2002 in Scotland, and 2005 in England and Wales, has had any affect on the welfare of foxes.
In the second episode of UNILAD’s new original series: ‘The Dark Side of Britain’, we explore the ever growing issue of the illegal puppy trade. The illegal puppy farming trading has increased by 75% in the last year, with an estimated 400,000 farmed puppies being sold to British buyers. Many are bought online and sadly 20% of these puppies die within the first 6 months. In this episode we follow a group of campaigners who are pushing for a ban on third-party sale of puppies through pet shops and dealers, to give all dogs the right to a better life.
In the third documentary of UNILAD’s original series: ‘The Dark Side Of Britain’, we explore the growing problem of synthetic cannabis AKA Spice, which is flooding the streets of Manchester. Spice was made illegal in 2016, but two years later we take to the streets of the UK's second city to see if this latest example of the war on drugs is working. In this episode we follow current and former users of this life destroying drug and the people trying to solve this issue once and for all.
