The Bible contains some of the greatest stories of mass destruction to ever befall mankind, where God's Wrath set off disasters from Noah's Flood to Sodom and Gomorrah and the Ten Plagues of Egypt. While scientists now believe they can explain the natural forces behind these Biblical tales, that does not mean the modern world can escape from the kind of events that decimated the ancient world. In fact, now they might bring even greater destruction upon us. ‘God's Wrath' explores what the repercussions might be if these events were to occur again.

Billions of years ago, when life began, the surface of Earth was a very dangerous place to be. Searing temperatures scorched the land, noxious fumes belched from volcanoes and with no protective ozone shield, the sun's rays cooked anything that moved. Nothing could live here. But deep under the oceans, the seeds of life had already been sown. In the frozen depths of the deepest trenches, the first animals were born.
Before long the oceans were alive with vast reefs of strange creatures, each trying out newly evolved solutions to the problems of living. They had the first shells, the first back bones, the first legs and the first teeth. They were the first swimmers, the first parasites and the first predators, some of which grew to immense sizes, even bigger than a man. Many died out, but the successful ones became the blueprints of all modern life on Earth, from the tiniest ant to the largest mammal — they were even the first ancestors of you and me.
David Attenborough is synonymous with the Natural World. From bacterium to blue whale, he has seen it all for himself. But now he embarks on the journey he always wanted to make but never thought possible — a voyage back in time to see how the first animals evolved and how they lived. Recent discoveries at fossil sites around the world over the last twenty years have propelled our understanding of the first life forms to new heights and with the emergence of ground breaking ways of visualizing them, including state of the art CGI, Attenborough will finally realize his dream and see for himself the animals that laid the foundations for all life on Earth.

In July 1937, Amelia Earhart vanished from the skies and entered the realm of myth and mystery. Most people believe that she ran out of fuel and crashed in the sea. But one man is convinced she met a different fate, and he believes he is on the verge of proving it.
Follow Ric Gillespie and his team as they travel to Nikumaroro, a remote Pacific island 350 miles from Amelia's last known location. That's where he believes Amelia landed her plane, struggled to survive as a castaway and finally died. He has found new clues and compelling evidence during his past expeditions, but no hard proof — yet. This time, he and his team are returning with the latest in scanning technology and an ambitious plan. They'll be deploying an advanced submersible to search the island's reef for wreckage from Amelia's plane. On land, they'll look for artifacts that may carry her DNA too. Will Ric, after 22 years of searching, solve the greatest of all aviation mysteries...finding Amelia?
