Stacey Dooley travels to Ukraine on Europe's far eastern edge to investigate the struggle to keep drugs out of the UK. Stacey reveals that drug cartels from South America have been using Ukraine as a transit hub to smuggle cocaine into western Europe. To uncover why cocaine shipments are taking this 2,000-mile detour, Stacey visits a new frontline in the war against international drug trafficking - the port of Odessa on Ukraine's Black Sea coast. Ukrainian officials show her the tricks traffickers use to hide drugs within cargoes - inside anything from industrial furnaces to excavated pineapples. But she soon learns from a port worker and a former drug trafficker that Ukrainian customs officials are notoriously open to bribes to get cargoes through.

Stacey also discovers that, because the drugs smuggled into Ukraine are too expensive for most local drug users, some are resorting to horrific homemade substitutes. Perhaps the worst is 'crocodile', so called because it rots the flesh of users and turns it scaly. Stacey meets some young addicts as they make a batch from bleach, petrol and tablets bought at the chemist. Learning they have only months to live, Stacey is also shocked to hear that police have recently found 'crocodile' in the UK.

Heading to remote and hostile regions, she investigates who's really winning this cat-and-mouse battle between the drug cartels and the police. Along the way she reveals the impact that the west's insatiable desire for more potent drugs is having on the people caught in the crossfire.

To begin, Stacey is on the trail of the world's most addictive and dangerous drug.

She tracks down hit men and traffickers who work for the cartels and hears shocking stories of violence from the families of their victims. It becomes clear that the power of the cartels now reaches into every corner of Mexican life and the authorities are increasingly powerless to stop it.

Along the way she reveals the impact that the west's insatiable desire for more potent drugs is having on the people caught in the crossfire.

Stacey follows the trail of the world's best-selling party drug, Ecstasy (aka MDMA), from the forests of Asia to inner-city drug dens in America.

Her journey starts in Cambodia, the source of Ecstasy's active ingredient, safrole oil. Here she joins jungle rangers as they patrol the forests to try to stop criminal gangs of loggers chopping down the trees that produce this rare but valuable oil, the raw ingredient of MDMA.

From Cambodia, Stacey follows the Ecstasy trail to Vancouver in Canada which is fast becoming one of the biggest centres of production of synthetic drugs on the planet. She joins the police who face a constant battle trying to locate and shut down the clandestine labs turning the oil into Ecstasy pills. Disturbingly, Stacey discovers that as the police get better at intercepting the shipments of oil, the cooks are turning to other chemicals to make Ecstasy, sometimes with devastating effects.

Stacey meets the family of one Canadian girl who took a pill she thought was Ecstasy, but which contained a far more powerful chemical - with lethal consequences. Across the world there's an increasing number of Ecstasy-related deaths, linked to unknown and dangerous chemicals being used in its production.

In Atlanta in the US, Stacey tracks down drug dealers selling Ecstasy from their 'trap house'. Here it's outstripping meth and crack as the most popular drug they sell, leading Stacey to conclude that what started as a party drug is now well on its way to becoming a street drug, sold by dangerous, warring gangs across the US.

With the UN and FBI suspecting that there are up to 750,000 people online at any one time hunting for children to exploit, how can the booming cybersex trade be policed effectively?

Kicking off BBC Three’s Gender Season, Stacey Dooley presents the first of two hard-hitting films from some of the worst places in the world to be female. She investigates why some young women today live in such dangerous, desperate and degrading conditions. In this episode Stacey travels to the Philippines - fast becoming the world capital of the cybersex industry.

Here, girls who are rarely let out and often underage must perform on webcams and be photographed for a global online audience. Within the last year alone, 139 Brits were investigated for paying to watch Philippine children being abused. Stacey learns how poverty combined with cheap internet access has led to an increasing number of girls being exposed to online sexual abuse.

Discovering the harrowing truth behind this widespread exploitation, Stacey then exposes an even darker side - cybersex dens. We see Stacey at her best as she goes undercover for the first time and follows the police on a major sting, bringing her face-to-face with the criminals behind this new and disturbing phenomenon.

She also travels north of Manila and learns that efforts are being made to help some of the 100,000 victims of exploitation, using therapy and counselling from psychologists - some of whom have suffered the same abuse as the children they are helping.

Stacey is overwhelmed at the sheer scale of this billion dollar industry, but remains hopeful that if police forces across the world work together, there's a chance this secretive trade can be tackled.
