Watch episode 1 of Demolition - The Wrecking Crew

The beauty of the BBC in 2015 is that if you miss an episode of a show, you can still watch it online using iPlayer for 30 days. That's the case for new series Demolition - The Wrecking Crew, which aired its first episode on May 17th. That means you've got until June 16th to watch it. We highly recommend it as it explores the "explosive world of demolition." It also includes a few very familiar faces.

Watch the episode online now.
