National Geographic Channels International unveils new upcoming shows for 2013 going behind Dubai airport and tough jobs in Russia.
National Geographic Channels International (NGCI) has announced new upcoming programming which South African viewers will start to see on the National Geographic Channel (DStv 260) on MultiChoice's DStv in 2013.
The shows commissioned by NGCI's international content unit in London include Dubai: Ultimate Airport, Vinnie Jones' Toughest Russia and Preppers UK: Surviving Armageddon (above).
Dubai: Ultimate Airport is a 10 part series from Arrow Media going behind the scenes at the incredibly busy airport.

Vinnie Jones' Toughest Russia sees Vinnie Jones taking on some of the toughest jobs and lifestyles in Russia, from being a bodyguard to a policeman.
"From capturing the tension and complexity of operating a very large, dynamic airport to following Vinnie Jones' quest to uncover the grit and glory behind Russia's toughest jobs, NGCI's newly commissioned programming slate offers viewers extraordinary access to some of the world's most remarkable people and places - all delivered by some of the brightest producers in the field," says Hamish Mykura, the executive vice president and the head of international content for NGCI.
