This is a documentary, going into a specific plot to kill Hitler. A group of experts try to recreate the events, and test two variations on it, to see how close the people actually came to succeeding. It consists of the experiment, old footage from the period and recreations. They give some basic background to the attempt, and there's plenty of info about it, the room, the placement of the target, etc. They also show the actual explosions that they cause(all in the interest of historical exploration, of course).

Follow archaeologist Dr. Zahi Hawass in his international campaign to recover Egypt's most iconic stolen treasures. For more than two hundred years, since Napol?on Bonaparte's expeditionary force landed at Alexandria in 1798, the Nile Valley has been systematically looted of its treasures. It's a story of breathtaking greed, hypocrisy and cultural philistinism, and it's a story that continues to this day. For Dr. Zahi Hawass, it's time to act. With exclusive access to the innermost workings of the Supreme Council of Antiquities in Cairo, this programme will examine the stories behind three of Egypt's most important artefacts: how they were discovered, where they are now and Dr. Hawass's attempts to bring them home.

WHO WAS CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS?
The answer to this deceptively simple question is undergoing a sea change. The rote response based on dusty, if questionable, documents in Genoa and recited in primary schools in the Old World and New is that Cristoforo Colombo, born in 1451: was an Italian ,was the son of lowly wool-workers, and therefore uneducated as well as lacking in experience in seamanship had legions of relatives in his hometown Genoa, none of them noble.
Historians and scientists questioning Columbus' heritage have put modern forensic techniques to work to help answer questions. Perhaps the most critical is DNA testing performed this year on bones that are believed to be those of Christopher Columbus, as well as remains from Columbus' son (Hernando) and brother(Diego).
Annunciada Colon, Columbus' direct descendent, handed over the key to a burial chest, disinterred from the Cathedral in Seville, Spain, that is reported to hold Columbus' bones. But there is debate about whether Columbus' body which was moved repeatedly over the centuries actually rests there.
Dr. Antonio Lorente of the University of Granada in Spain, a specialist in forensic genetics, is attempting to compare the genetic material from the three sets of remains to see if he can prove that this is Columbus.

Discovery Channel Embarks On a Virtual Expedition to DRAIN THE OCEAN For an Unprecedented View of What Lies Beneath
Digital ocean mapping and CGI technology vividly illustrate the mountains,plains, canyons and creatures of the deep as never seen before,revealing a world of almost unimaginable scale right here on Earth -
The oceans cover three-quarters of our planet, hiding a whole other world beneath the waves. If we could pull an imaginary plug at the bottom of the sea and, layer by layer, expose the majesty and mystery of what lies beneath, we would be astounded.
Narrated by Avery Brooks (STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE) and combining the latest scientific data with state-of-the-art CGI computer hardware plus specially written software, this innovative and visually striking special drains the water from the oceans to reveal the mountains, canyons, plains and volcanoes that are more dramatic than anything visible on dry land.
The ocean is the last frontier and images of the deep are only glimpsed in the lights of a submarine or ROVs (remotely operated vehicles), with most of this undersea world having never known the light of the sun. Leading international scientists and institutes in the field of oceanography and marine science join in this quest to lay bare the landscapes of the deep and share their experiences and ideas about what this mysterious world might look like.
Deep water corals that rival an urban skyline in size, a submerged canyon that is bigger than the Grand Canyon, a mountain range that runs for 65,000km - all these features have only been known in recent decades and while exploring these fascinating landscapes, scientists have discovered life forms that they had no idea existed - or could exist - in these bizarre, hostile environments.
Combining CGI with cutting-edge digital ocean-mapping technology, leading oceanographers and geologists re-create the spectacular formations growing and shifting below the waves of the world's oceans. T
