Megabridges: Spanning The Void is dedicated to a selection of spectacular and pioneering milestones in the art of engineering. This ranges from the Pont du Gard of Roman times to the French TGV high-speed train.
The documentary looks at gigantic dams, navigable canals, kilometre-long tunnels that cross mountains and seas, and the Millau Viaduct, the longest cable-stayed bridge in the world. It provides insights into the construction and operation of these icons of progress.

Named Bibracte, it is the most significant oppidum in all of Gaul. Aedui, a Gallic tribe friendly to the Romans, settled there and constructed a fortified city.
Can you imagine this ancient metropolis of 10,000 people? How did they manage to construct such strong defences when no other Gallic city had them at the time? How did archaeologists read ancient wooden artefacts that had been worn down by the passage of time? How come the Aedui just up and left their capital?
Evidence of rapid Romanisation, such as a forum, a basilica, and a sophisticated hydraulic system, is about to be revealed thanks to state-of-the-art LIDAR-enabled topographic maps and breathtaking computer-generated imagery.
Bibracte is still a massive excavation site, and its remnants continue to disclose ancient mysteries. Archaeologists, in the role of true investigators, have uncovered evidence of the ancient tribe’s cunning and brilliance during a pivotal time in the Roman Gallic age.
Explores three supertunnels that were once impossible to build, including the Mont Cenis Tunnel, the Eurotunnel and the Mont Blanc Tunnel. All three of these tunnels are examples of some of the biggest engineering endeavours ever undertaken by man.
