 The Earth With No Moon
What would life on earth be like without the moon? Well, chances are, there wouldn't be any life on ... earth without the moon. Life – if it had started at all – would still be in the earliest stages of evolution.

The Day We Learned to Think
Understanding of humans' earliest past often comes from studying fossils. They tell us much of what we know about the people who lived before us. There is one thing fossils cannot tell us; at what point did we stop living day-to-day and start to think symbolically, to represent ideas about our environment and how we could change it? At a dig in South Africa the discovery of a small piece of ochre pigment, 70,000 years old, has raised some very interesting questions.

The French Revolution
On July 14, 1789, a mob of angry Parisians stormed the Bastille and seized the King's military stores. A decade of idealism, war, murder, and carnage followed, bringing about the end of feudalism and the rise of equality and a new world order. The French Revolution is a definitive feature-length documentary that encapsulates this heady (and often headless) period in Western civilization. With dramatic reenactments, illustrations, and paintings from the era, plus revealing accounts from journals and expert commentary from historians, The French Revolution vividly unfurls in a maelstrom of violence, discontent, and fundamental change.

Decoding The Past: Unraveling The Shroud
For centuries the Shroud of Turin has been a touchstone of faith for millions. Many believe it is the primary evidence of the way Jesus Christ died on the Cross. But is it real or a clever forgery? Is it possible that Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci played a trick on the Roman Catholic Church? DECODING THE PAST presents the latest theories and the most current tests, some commissioned especially for the program. Despite centuries of scrutiny from scientists, theologians, and art historians, the linen cloth with the faint image has remained an enigma. Like a mirror, for some it has reflected what we know; for others, what we believe.

Mysteries of the Bible: Biblical Angels
They are quiet figures at the center of some of the Bible's most miraculous moments. They steeled David against Goliath, warned Abraham of Sodom's destruction and freed Peter from jail. But while the work of angels has long stirred popular imagination, wonder and debate cloud the details of their holy purpose. What do the Scriptures tell us about them? Are they messengers from Heaven? What do they look like? Do they continue to guide and help us today? And what happened to the "fallen angels?" This extraordinary program searches for clues in the stories of the Bible's heavenly spirits, from the archangels Michael and Gabriel to the ethereal forms that announced Christ's birth and resurrection.
